    AFAIK, there is not really a standard. The batteries aren't rated at the same maH. so, it's doubtful that there is an universal connector for power.

    I think that the best you could do is to buy more RAM or a bigger hard drive

    whatever kind you have in there now. You'll probably be safe with the shorter stick (SO-DIMM), be sure that it's not DDR, I'm guessing that it won't work in that laptop. Take it to a computer store and they should be able to help you out
