Default memory for ancient desktop

this box is pitiful. a memory upgrade would do it wonders. my question is this: how much memory can I put in? it's a hp pavillion xe783 that shipped with winme and 64 mb ram. i've recently installed xp pro sp3 and a 128 mb chip. all the memory finder tools say that 512mb is the maximum, but is that figure os specific? isn't xp supposed to handle 4gb? my motherboard is Asus CUW-AM/MEW-AM 1.13 with Phoenix Technologies LTD 2.04 08/15/00 bios. memory type is 168-pin DIMM SDRAM PC133 and i have seen some 512mb chips on ebay.

it's not that i'm too lazy to search for the info, i've been searching all morning. i just thought that maybe someone else may already know the answer or can point me in the correct direction.
