New CPU

I'm trying to upgrade my Processor for the sake so I can play Doom 3 and Half Life 2.

Yet I don't know what kind of CPU is my motherboard compatiable with.

I remember that there was a program that describle me all the detail about my computer. Yet I forgot what's it call.

I'm trying to upgrade from 1.5 Ghz to a 2.0 Ghz area or higher.

I'm running Intel P4 1.5 Ghz. But I don't know the pin/core speed for it.

I also have NO idea what's my motherboard specification. Except that its a Intel Motherboard with Intel Processor.

if you click on the run button in the start menu then type - 'msinfo32'

Without the quotes.

That tells you everything about your computer.
