forgot to add the link xD http://www.iobit.com/gamebooster.html

basically it closed down programes that your pc doesnt need to use whilst your ingame, and with the touch of a button you can reactivate once you have finished.]]></description>

This, plus get a second-hand Geforce 6600GT (AGP): its quite cheap nowadays but you'll feel the difference...]]></description>

Dont you need some for m0re's high fps to put it into dx8 and whatever ( I don't about numlock's but he said they were the same...) ? 

From m0re's high fps autoexec file:

    	    <description><![CDATA[Hello,

Because the graphics card of my comp died, I've been trying to get TF2 running on my old computer. I've got it working, but with bad FPS. I think it averages about 25-30, but it stutters quite often (sometimes short, sometimes a bit longer). 

My specs are:
AMD Athlon 2400+ 2.0 ghz processor
512mb RAM
ATI Radeon 9250 256mb
WinXP Pro 32-bits

I'm running num1ocked's high fps config (same one as m0re's I think) with Multicore Rendering disabled and I use ATI Tray Tools to force the LOD to the absolute lowest. My resolution is 1280x768 (16:10). I don't know if this has any influence on it, but I use Flame's HUD. I don't have any launch options set.

Does anyone know what else I can do to further increase my FPS, besides the obvious 'buy better hardware'?]]></description>
