For the Size part I would Recommend using 4-6 GB of Ram

You can get all the details about your hardware using Speccy.
Google or visit the manufacturers site to check how much RAM and type your motherboard supports.

EDIT:
Based on the info on Compaq site, the max RAM your motherboard can support is 4GB DDR2 SDRAM, but there are no details about the motherboard model or RAM type
