On your first shot it looked like the disk was 100% for a while... Looks OK now

I would upgrade/clone the HDD to a SSD - otherwise you should expect frequent 100% disk usage and PC lagging when disk intensive activities like loading apps, booting, and installing windows updates is happening.

Good idea, the drive is nearly 11 years old, the last time I saw them they where... loll

It If it's like my dino's, 4 GB is the max

I'd still put a SSD in it if a new PC isn't in the budget. I have a SSD in my dino.

OP's machine could support 16Go. PC2-6400, memory price range from 8$-23$ per card. 2Go-4Go, But a SSD would change everything. For nearly the same price.
