whats the biggest need of upgrading?
First priority would be your memory. Your memory capacity is too low by a factor of 2. 4GB would suffice for dual boxing.

The next priority would be your graphics card, not because of its age but because it also has a rather low memory capacity.

HTH


I agree ... I recently upgraded from 2mb to 4mb (actually to 6mb with a $49 4gb kit, but OS won't use), and it made a world of difference for me as far as lag and poor video frame rates. Although I think the video issues you mentioned will probably be ultimately be solved by a better graphics card. I didn't have any of that, but I am running an 8800GTX.

As far as installing one, they are not too difficult. Be careful, some PCI-E video slots have a locking mechanism that you need to release before pulling the card out.
