I guess your system must be so low-spec or so bad that you are really embarrassed to talk about it or mention your specifications despite being asked multiple times already. Take no offense please. I'm just wondering why you are avoiding and evading answering to this kind of questions. I used to rock very bad hardware myself for 10 years until I saved up money and build myself a brand new computer myself.

It's 2020 and you're asking for "snake oil" software tricks to gain more FPS in a game from 2004! So a system that after 16 years can't run such an old game properly must be really outdated and low-spec. That was and still is my guess. Like seriously it must be really bad. Again take no offense please. As I said before there are no real software tricks. People mentioned things that you can do yourself without all the snake oil software and applications. They are general things everyone can do to generally free up resources and increase the performance a little bit by decreasing load on the system caused by unnecessary software and background processes.

The only real way to fix the issue is new hardware. And with "new hardware" I don't even necessary mean a brand new and high end system. To play the games you play properly you don't need a brand new and top notch system. You can even start off with used hardware like older i5/i7 generations that go very cheap used. Used RAM and other used components go for quite a good price. If you don't want used hardware you can actually go the route of brand new hardware that has the right performance but for a good price. Especially with the new Ryzen 3 CPUs and GPUs. Or you can mix new hardware (mainboard, CPU, RAM) with used hardware (GPU) to make a balanced build in terms of cost vs performance.
