In a similar sitch myself, OP. I have a 2006 Gateway laptop (really stinks). Here are some games that help me pass the time:

M&B Warband
Civilization IV
Star Wars: Battlefront II
Killing Floor (on lowest settings it is playable, but truly horrendous to look at, lol)
Terraria
Morrowind
The Sims 2

If you need someone to multiplay any of these games with, lemme know

As an aside, I kind of wish I still had Battlefield 1942, or that there was a digital copy for sale somewhere. I wonder if GoG will ever get around to this one, probably not though.

I've already played Age of Empires 3 on this machine. It is, or rather was since I am done with it and its War Chiefs expansion, awesome. But, seriously now, can I run Torchlight 2?

I'll play Morrowind with you. I've been looking for someone to play multiplayer with.

The Witcher 1? Really, I doubt I could run that. I own Mount & Blade, but it doesn't seem to agree with my computer or 64-bit Windows 7. Either way, I don't like the incredibly difficult combat.
