Not sure which OS you are using? I suspect this machine was originally shipped with W2k and it may have been updated to XP loosing the speed step and battery utility?
Usually the speed step is a small application that needs to be installed seperately on the machine.
This was listed under W2k and not XP?? on the HP site:

Will probably work with XP?
You may also need to calibrate the battery and also check for BIOS updates as well. Also if the battery is close to 3 years old, may not have full useful life.
Look at this link for more info:

As for the memory issue, I can't comment on this. May not be a real issue?? Maybe there is something to it??
