To start things off, Wikipedia is a good source for background on a lot of the hardware you have.
I have had a couple of P4 computers. If yours is 1.7GHz, then it probably does not have an input for a SATA HDD on the motherboard. If you want to plug in a new processor, it will have to be of the same P4 type to fit in the slot. Around the time that 1.7GHz P4's were produced, Intel changed the slot type so many newer P4's may not fit. You definitely cannot use Core 2 processors or anything else made in the last 4 years or so. Also, if you do not know what you are doing, including applying thermal paste/pads, you will break your computer.
Make sure you buy the right type of RAM. Chances are it's DDR2, but you'd have to check your computer to be sure.
Right now you can find computers better than any Pentium 4 computer that you can install a SATA drive into for $300 American or so.
Most of the time it is worth buying a new computer if the upgrade parts are not free (except for RAM and optical drives, which are well worth the money).
