Well i am gueesing you want a new processor and RAM?

Firstly, you need to check what RAM you motherboard will work with, i think you will be needing SDRAM, because it's an old computer right?

BUT, if you want a new proccessor, you WILL need to upgrade your motherboard, well, that's if it's a new proccessor (2.0+Ghz etc). And make sure that it's a motherboard compatible with the proccessor you are looking for.

You are better off to wait for Urban to reply, he knows what he is talking about lol. What i have put is just basics :(

EDIT: Also, when you purchase a new motherboard, you will need to find out what RAM is compatible with it. With the new Motherboard's out now, they can use either DDR or Sdram i think, well, most of them can :P

Oki, wel you will more than likly need SDRAM :) also check to see how much each slot can have. My pc can have 512mb SDRAM in each slot (3 slots), so the max my motherboard can support is 1.5gb ram.

try looking on the motherboard for a model number, most likley it will either be inbetween thee white slots or at the bottom

once you have that, google it. then you can pull up all the spect the board can take
