What one upgrade does my computer need most?

I've been given a very clean, but kind of slow desktop computer. I'm keeping it very well maintained and updating the drivers and such, but I want to run games smoothly on it. I've been playing Morrowind with mods on low settings and it runs fine for the most part, but I'd like to up the settings, and I'd like to possibly play more graphically intense games. I think it really needs a RAM upgrade because the CPU stats seem high, but I don't think my GFX card is too good either. I'm willing to spend a few hundred or more to upgrade my PC, but I want to be sure where to spend it. Based on these stats, what one (or possibly multiple) area(s) should I upgrade, and what replacement part(s) should I buy? Also, if theres anything non-purchase related in these stats that could help me, I'd appreciate knowing that too. Thanks.

What is it that you do on your computer?

Surf the web, do school work, and play games. Like I said I've been playing Morrowind, and my main concern is running games better.

More RAM and a video card would do.

Not many options for video card though.

The Dimensions 2400 will take a max of 2 gig ram. That would help.

One of the biggest bottlenecks on a system is the video. You are using the integrated video, which never are very good. Problem is that your system does not have an AGP slot. Its all PCI.

You can upgrade the video with a PCI card that has 128 or more megs of memory dedicated to video.
Might be kind of hard to find one though.

Well now I'm considering an entirely new computer, salvaging what I can from this one.

You can use this one as a back up system to store important data on.
