are you planning to get 4GB x 1 or 2GB x 3 ??
If you have 4 DIMM slots , go for 2GB x 3 way

@ OP
Yes it will support but you should rather consider to follow Anil's Advice. It that case it will perform better. Get 2GB*3.

installing a new stick or two with old one gives BSOD sometimes & other errors.

@manab_bikash, take the CPU to shop & ask them to install 4Gb ram as a stick or 2X2Gb kit (if you have 4 DIMM slots) & check if PC boots up nicely. thats the best way i know.
