I found an old computer in the garage..

I'm trying to figure out if it's compatiable to play a game because I wanted to hook it up for my mom..
It's got 2.20 GHz, 504 MB of RAM with a Intel Celeron.
It's seems ok but here's the thing~ The C drive is totally full.. everything you do, there's always an hourglass and it seems like its workin kinda hard even just to open up folders on the desktop. When I open up Windows Task Manager, it says it's 100% under processes. -.-
C: drive only has 5.99 GB (which is full.. has hardly anything on it but the operating system, i guess)
E: drive has 25.7 and F: drive has 11.5? Does that make sense? Some pleeeasse help me out, I'm thinking I can just use my Windows XP disc and reinstall onto the E: drive since it's the largest. Last time I reinstalled a computer, I totally deleted the operating system and then it wouldnt let reinstall it. I had to end up paying someone to fix it for me. I deleted drivers or something..
Right now this is what I see in the add/remove programs list:
Intel Extreme Graphic driver
FTDI USB Serial Converter Drivers
Realtek AC'97 audio
If I try to reinstall, will I have trouble booting back up? D; Do I need to save any files or drivers onto a disc?
Help me out, I need a geek <3 and please speak to me in a way I can understand! You guys seem to be a certain breed.. you have a different language heheh thanks so much.
