it is probably a really old machine by the sounds of it

you should pop the shell of and have a look for the slots

i would imagine it is using PC100 SDRAM (100MB/s)

to give you some idea how old that is

the fastest ram i have seen now is PC6700 (6.7 GB/s) DDR SDRAM, the most
common is PC3200 (3.2 GB/s)DDR SDRAM

i found this page

2 Slots each can hold a max of 256MB by the looks of it

but it seems you are definately looking for 168-pin PC100 SDRAM
