can someone please help me there

Answer 1

well you gotta find out what model it is, DDR, DDR2, etc. Download CPU-Z and it should tell you, i cant explain much because im in a hurry so yeah, it tells you everything about your computer hardware.

Answer 2

You can put higher speeds only if its ddr2 memory.  Look up your board online (google) for specs.
