upgrading Presario V3000 laptop

[shmotzy]

I just bought my sister's V3000 laptop. I want to upgrade memory to 2 GB. What is the best kind of memory to install in it? (2x1GB). Also, can I upgrade CPU and Graphics? Thank you!

Graphics on any V3000 model cannot be upgraded under any circumstances.

Maximum memory is 2 x 1 GB PC2-5300 (667 Mhz) memory, for a total of 2 GB.

On the bottom of the laptop it just says V3000, nothing after the 3000. It has a Centrino cor duo 1.6 Ghz cpu.
