There are some really cheap options to upgrade that POS, if it is a socket 775 desktop. Core 2 Duo is about the time when Moore's law really started slowing down, that is you can get by just fine with a 9 year old Core 2 Duo. Even if you had bought a top of line CPU(Pentium D?) 11 years ago you it would still be sluggish today.

  Yikes, socket 478 is pretty much a lost cause, you can't even get any dual cores for it. You could buy a low end NUC (Celeron is fine) and it would pay for itself in a year and be faster.
