upgrading your RAM would help with everything you do...not just games. I think office max has 128mb pc133 for $15 this week...hasn't been that cheap in quite a while. No guarantee it will work though....

it depend what kinda games you like.
Starcraft, CS, oringal HL, almost all the games that came out before year of 2001 would work fine. but computer is pretty cheap today, if you want, you can buy a intel celeron 2.8 GHZ with 128 or 256MB ddr ram, 40 GB hard drive computer for $399.

shut the f--- up
