This is the memory types you can get:

Memory Type: DDR PC2700, DDR PC3200, DDR (non-ECC)


This is max memory and the slots you have for memory:

Maximum Memory: 1GB
Slots: 2


This is your memory slot limitation specs:

Each memory slot can hold DDR PC2700, DDR PC3200 with a maximum of 512MB per slot.*


I would suggest buying two of these HERE
Take out your old memory and replace it with the two new modules. Your ending result will be the maximum 1 gig of total memory. Total cost 37.98 plus tax. Standard shipping is free so no worries there.
5 to 9 days for delivery.

That gives you a total of 512 which is a lot better but still low in today's standards. I would suggest when you can follow my instructions in post 17. The only other way to speed everything up is to do a complete format and reinstall but be warned that as you add programs and your autoruns increase then your system will slow down. This also can be because of a Av running in the background that uses a lot of system resources.

Are you still having problems with your issue?
It has been 19 days since your last response and I was wondering if the issue has been resolved?
If so can you explain how it was resolved so others may be able to fix it if they have the same issue.
If not please let us know and we can continue with helping you to resolve the issue.

Ha ha It was twice as fast :) I just picked up a box that has 3 gigs so I may upgrade again, but not until the teenager using it screws it up again.

I can understand that one for sure. I have 6 systems I keep running here not counting a friend who I have repaired his laptop twice in the last month.
