FPS Drops In almost every game i play please help

keep in mind that the Radeon X1550 is no longer supported by ATI drivers, it is a legacy product and isn't officially supported by Windows 7.

Yea i know but it worked fine for a long time so i see no reason to stop.
Btw, installed a previous version of the driver and still get the fps drops, i tried, unnistalling and reinstalling 10.2 (most recent version) and unnistalling 10.2 and isntalling 9.11 (previous version) and both dint work... I want to and i will buy a better computer but until i can afford it, i wanna use this one even if its just for LoL

Have you Trieste to restore your system with a system restore point?

You could try to reinstall Windows...

Well yea i know but im just trying to do whatever i can cause its ahrd for me now to buy even a Ram memory :S
Yes, i did reinstall windows, but i had windows 7 i cuoldnt find the CD, so i installed WinXP, worked fine without lags for a while, then it started droping again, but less frequently
I was able to play some games on high graphics, such has league of legends, and i could play games with Low/Normal graphics such has CodMW3, then sudently bam this happends
Edit: Been checking the hardware and stuff, noticed my GPU is pretty hot, theres only like a metal cooler and not a fan, i dont even need to touch the graphic card cause just by putting my hand a bit closer i can feel the heat, so it might be above 30º or something like that... Is there anyway i can make this low the temperature? unil i get a new GPU

Above 30? Most likely above 50 or even 60.
Point a fan at the computer without the side panel.

I dont have a fan atm... Or else i'd tried that :S

Edit: FPS is dropping in streams aswell :c

Okay, you are making it difficult. We can help, but we don't do miracles. If it's a hardware limitation there is nothing we can do besides telling you to replace the components.

In this case, maybe you should try getting a summer job so you can raise some money and pay for new parts or a new computer?

I am working on that actually, but i dont know if u know about portugal, its been pretty hard to get a job here this days... And i know you dont do miracles >.< But yea, i just wanted to try everything before changing the components, but if theres no other option, the only thing i can say is thank you for your time in helping me ^^

MW3 on a pentium 4 with a Radeon X1550? LOL :)

I higly suggest you to buy a used core 2 duo, trust me. It will help a lot.
