When you install Windows 7 it wipes your drive of all files and programs. After you have run the adviser to see if your computer is compatible with 7 here is a good guide to upgrading.

Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor has encountered a problem and needs to close .. we are sorry for the inconvenience i dont kno why it dont work

If your mobo can handle it Windows 32 bit can read up to 3.5 GB RAM. I'm getting ready to watch a basketball game but will check it out at half time.
Run the crucial system scanner. this will tell you what the maximum amount of RAM your motherboard can support and the upgrade options if any
: Will my system recognize the maximum upgrade?
A: Possibly
How much memory your Windows OS will recognize depends on which version of Windows you are running. 32-bit versions of Windows will see (and utilize) only 3GB or 3.5GB. To utilize more memory, install a 64-bit version of your OS. More information about OS memory maximums can be found at Crucial FAQ - Answer
Q: How much memory can my computer handle?
A: 2048MB.
Adding the maximum amount of memory will improve performance and help extend the useful life of your system as you run increasingly demanding software applications in the future
Maximum Memory Capacity: 2048MB
Currently Installed Memory: 1.5GB
Available Memory Slots: 0
Total Memory Slots: 2
Dual Channel Support: No
CPU Manufacturer: AuthenticAMD
CPU Family: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 2800+ Model 12, Stepping 0
CPU Speed: 1808 MHz
