Need new CPU for OLD laptop

Hey guys.

I have an old laptop from 2005 (on it now) that I am fixing up a little. I have the motherboard laying on my desk in front of me now as we speak and I am planning on upgrading the RAM and CPU then building a nice small home for her out of plexiglass with the screen mounted. Kind of like a large and fat non-touch screen tablet attached to a see through box where mobo will be.

Right now I threw a [2GB 2Rx8 PC2-6400S-666-12] stick of ram in her because the 512MB wasn't even going anywhere. I still need this stick for my other laptop though, I'm just using for time being. I tried putting both 2GB sticks in but it can't handle it I don't think.

So firstly, I'm trying to figure out what the max ram would be for this puppy.

Then secondly. I am hoping to find a processor that the old time motherboard will support and be better than the one I'm running now.

Laptop Information

I've tried checking out the motherboard serial and looking at different website specifications but I can't find out this information. Can anyone help me figure out the best choice for ram and cpu?

Thanks.
