RAM data
I tried the program but was unable to find any voltage data.Hello Walt now that machine does support 4GB RAM and I don't think you can alter the memoery speeds witha BIOS thta old I stand to be corrected of course.
What I suggest you do is put in the old RAM which I am guessing the machien came with and find out the timings etc using this
Using HW Info
PART A:
You can test the volts on the PSU with HW Info HWiNFO, HWiNFO32/64 - Download < download the right bit version and close the right hand window select Sensors and scroll down to the power section where you will see what the volts are doing see my pic. In my pic the section (Nuvoton) with VBATT as a dead give away you are in the section for the rail voltages. There are other section titles and one that pops up often is ITE (sometimes the usual one for Gigabyte boards)
Now the voltage on the different rails have to be within 5% =+/- of what is required or the machine will not work properly if at all.
Limits +/-
12v = 11.4 – 12.6v
5v = 4.74 – 5.25v
3.3v = 3.135 – 3.465v
The Power good signal voltage at pin 8 on the 24 pin plug (grey cable) should be the same as the 5v rail reading/s
See this for the rail voltage info
PSUs 101: A Detailed Look Into Power Supplies (Section 2.)
The original right hand window shows the machine running and is handy for that but for looking at the components in some detail close it and use the main left hand side panel
FOR OTHER COMPONENTS
PART B:
Open each small square with + in it on the section the components are in and then click on the individual component/s (it will highlight in blue) - in the right hand side will appear all sorts of details including brands speeds and other essential info that particular device. See pic for example.
Use PART B: and scroll down the right hand side panel to find exactly what they are. See pic of mine you need only highlight the sticks to find the speeds and timings
After that I would be inclined to get just one stick - 4GB RAM or at very least a matched pair (2x2GB) because that way it avoids any discrepancies in unmatched / different brand RAM
