See you Cowgirl,

You should be able to run morrowind on those specs. But I know its also possible to hook up an external graphics card to a laptop and stream the game on it.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
External graphics cards are quite expensive, because you're basically paying for a raspberry-pi sized computer. Not really sure what you could do honestly, especially with your CPU clock speed.

Do they work well enough though?
They get really fucking hot because they usually don't have a heatsink/fan installed, and if they do, they're low quality. If you can keep it in a cool environment, you'll be fine.

External GPUs don't sound worth it.
Your specs are pretty limited.  Just from eye-balling it, you can probably play some of those older games at really low settings, and still experience some hiccups.  My experience with older Bethesda games (pre-Skyrim) is that they run like shit on Windows, too.
