It doesn't look hopeful.
The Centurion CPQ9104 has a Foxconn A7VMX-K mainboard which was a special (OEM)version supplied to the Centurion manufacturer.
The Foxconn manual for the retail version states the maximum supported memory is 4GB.

Yes that really sucks, most of motherboards from Foxonn are budget motherboards (that's why these computers are cheap), but if you know the parameters of your machine you are able to buy a really good motherboard which you can extend your memory (from Maplin, Overclockers or in other place) for reasonable price.
