This is what Crucial lists for that motherboard. Buying 2 sticks of the 1GB will max out the amount and speed of ram that your board will take.

Ram isn't hard to change. Shut down the computer, unplug it from the wall. Open the cover. Ground yourself against the bare metal of the case to avoid static discharge. Remove the old ram and put in the new. The ram is "keyed" to only go in one way. Put the cover back on, plug it in, start up. Should recognize the new ram without any issues.
