You need to upgrade your memory to the maximum allowed by your motherboard which in your model is expandle to 4gb of ram max. You should be fine with the cpu that you have, just don't be running high gaming, digital editing, programs. You shouldn't multi task that much either too, because your cpu isn't meant to handle that much of a thread. But adding memory will solve the slow unresponsive promblem you are dealing with. Your computer should accept ddr2 memories. Remember don't go over 4gb, otherwise your computer won't function correctly.

Will it boot with only ONE of the 2GB memory-sticks installed?
Will it boot with ONE of the 2GB memory-sticks AND one of the 1GB memory-sticks?

Look closely at the 1GB memory-sticks.
Does the label show 'DDR266' or 'DDR333' or 'DDR400' or 'PC2100' or 'PC2700' or 'PC3200' ?
Do the 2GB memory-sticks have _identical_ information?
It's definitely _not_ acceptable to have "slower" RAM (smaller numbers) in the new RAM,
but it _might_ be acceptable to have "faster" RAM (larger numbers).

Hi there
Your t1090 will only accept a maximum chip size of 256Mb and so it will not accept the added the 512mb chip as it cannot handle it. 512 is the maximum size of RAM for this machine but unfortunately you cant put it in in one go

the maximum memory allotted that machine is 1.2 gigs and to do so you open the bottom memory door ans slide out the slot card and reinsert the new one

Look closely at the BOLD print
