Can I put 1gb in the other slot, with the 512gb also? And how much is too much or is there even a max? I have an Intel pentium 4 processor. With that being said, is the pentium 4 good to run large programs like games? And can I change my processor? any help will be great. I am currently shopping memory from the Dell website. I own a Compaq presario 6370us.

Should work fine, you need to check out you computer and make sure it can handle 1Gb sticks.
go to www.crucial.com
Try to find a manual for your motherboard and it should tell you all about the memory needed and or what to use there is also a scan done by some memory seller web sites that scan to tell you what and where to get the memory needed.
yes you can put that in there. and there is no sucjh thing as too much memory but there may be a limit to how much the board can take which you would need to consult the makers website for that....
also yes you can upgrade the proc in there.
You need the manual for your mother board. It will tell you how high of a processor you can put on that board. It will also give you step by step instructions on filling your memory banks. Some mother boards only allow the same size memory stick in each slot and they only go up to a certain amount that you can put in. That manual is god and you have got to look at it and read it before you add or take away anything on the mother board. Good Luck! Oh yeah, a lot of manuals are online if you don't have the original.
Check your user's manual that came with the PC for the specs of your model. It will probably say somewhere what the max. amount of RAM is that you can have for your model. If you don't have a manual, you might be able to download one for your model in DOC or PDF format from www.hp.com .
For example, you user's manual might say that you can only have 1GB RAM for your model. If you already have a 512, then buy another 512. Or, if the specs say that you could have up to 2GB, then you could buy two 1GBs. Etc.
Note: Compatibility is always an issue. You just never know if a RAM chip will work until you stick it in and %26quot;fire it up%26quot;. Try and remove the existing RAM chip to see specs written on it (if you don't already know them) to buy a compatible chip to increase your chances of success.
Good luck. :-)
