We will need more specs than what you've provided, please download CPU-Z and run it while you post screenshots of each tab provided you don't know what your systems internals are. The next thing I'd like to advise is not to keep your hopes up too high since this looks like a system based off of an Intel Q35 motherboard and the maximum ram would be 8GB's(2x4GB) of DDR2 800MHz.

Both of the aforementioned Adobe Applications are resource hungry so I'm not sure how any ram upgrades will fair on your system. In fact with the cost of DDR2 right now, it may or may not be a wise investment. Nevertheless, have a site you prefer to purchase from? Ebay?
