I'm afraid that you're probably best off thinking in terms of starting over
with building a new computer. You won't be able to replace a pentium 3
processor with a pentium 4. They require different motherboards.
You might be able to strip a few parts out of the Compaq for use in a new
system, such as the drives, but you'll likely need to be thinking in terms
of a new case, new power supply, new motherboard, new memory, new processor,
and probably a new video card.
These are general suggestion, which is the best I can offer without knowing
exactly what model Compaq you have.
You might want to take a look at the some of the Buyers Guides at Anandtech,
http://www.anandtech.com/guides/index.html, in order to get a better idea of
what parts would best meet your needs.
