I didn't see your RAM listed there. Do you know how much RAM you have?

Without seeing much more you could probably update your processor dirt cheap to something like an intel pentium 4. Here is a used one on Ebay for $9 https://www.ebay.com/i/191689165644?chn=ps&dispItem=1. Someone on here probably has one lying around. I think I used to but got rid of bunch of my parts recently.

Update your RAM to get it up to 8GB for probably around $25 bucks. Then buy a cheap card. You wouldn't have a to bad of machine for around $50. If someone has some parts for you around here you could get by a lot cheaper. Fish said he has some parts so maybe he has some he could give you. I will look when I get home but I am thinking I got rid of most of everything I had.
