Buy a new computer, use that as a spare/test machine.

Well I would suggest buying a new one, but it totally depends on your budget

Well with your specs o_o I would assume your mother board is old as hell meaning if you want to buy a new graphics, processor that's up to today's standards your better off building it off from scratch with totally new parts or buying a new one like the others said.

If it is solely to play MS, don't waste the money. If you are going to use it for useful things, you probably should get a new computer when you have the money. Occasionally Woot.com has good deals on computers, but the deals only last for a day. Keep your eyes open.
