Dont have money to spend on new hardwares so give me a tip to get in modern computer fashion

Ok, firstly I reformatted your list so we can read it.

Next point, that's not much worse than my rig was, main differences were I was was running a 3 GHz cpu and had 2 gig of ram.

Your *cheapest* upgrade option is to try and bring your ram up to 1 gig, 2 gig would be better.

After that get your hands on a 3ghz CPU of the same type you already have, your 'crap' motherboard should be able to handle it.

Bigger HD. Keep the 20gb hd for your OS and only your OS, put everything else (games programs etc) on the 'new' HD. Get as big as you can afford.

If the monitor still works, keep it.

The ATI video card you have is quite a good one, you *should* be able to run most games at a reasonable speed with it, just don't push the game graphics all the way to the top (that card should run Free Lancer with *everything* on)

Keyboards/Mice are pretty much the same, they just come in different sizes, if the ones you have work, hang on to them.

Computer case.... old crap? A case is a case, I had the same case through more than 4 rebuilds until recently. Do you want to get rid of it because it's old or because it's not doing the job?

What it *really* comes down to is keeping the stuff that still works or is still usable (monitor, keyboard, mouse ect) and upgrading the bits that aren't pulling their weight anymore.

If you are looking to get 'modern', it's going to cost you some dollars to do it.

Note: This is just advice and is the way I would do it if I was in your situation. If you aren't sure you can do the work yourself, take it to a computer technician and get thier advice!
If you choose to take this advice, try do it yourself and screw it up in some fashion, don't blame me.
