Here's info on the ram:
Computer memory upgrades for HP - Compaq Presario 7000 Series Model 7120US Desktop/PC from Crucial.com

And from that link:
Maximum Memory: 1024MB
Slots: 4 (2 banks of 2)
Standard Memory: 128MB removable

I'd guess you have a pretty old pc and...If it really has a P4, it probably wouldn't be worth the effort or money tp upgrade the cpu.

Well to my knowledge a cpu upgrade for any laptop is gonna cost a lot. The cheaper method of upgrading is to buy a new laptop. Anyway I can't find any cpu's that would work.

LOL CK I think you've done this before, but what he has is a desktop not a laptop Compaq Presario Desktop PC 7120US

I can't find the specs list on the hp/compaq site but I believe that thing uses RAMBUS memory and if that's the case then even adding more memory would be expensive.
