What kind of RAM do I need?

I have an HP Pavilion with an AMD Sempron 2800 1.6 ghz and this information in relation to my motherboard: Board: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD MS-7253 1.00
Bus Clock: 200 megahertz
BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 07/03/2006
I currently have one 512MB stick and would like to upgrade to 2 1GB sticks if possible.
