Most of the details for my laptop are in my signature link, however not all are, I have 2 GB of RAM, however I do not remember the video memory I have at my disposal, I do not have a way to add virtual RAM to my laptop via SDCards or USB drives, none of my current drives work for the speed boost feature. My HD capacity is 110 GB and remaining is about 20-ish or so GB, which to me isn't that bad, there's room for improvements, but its okay.

I CANNOT run games like Minecraft and Skyrim and other recent games, Minecraft is very slow and unresponsive and I'm not even going to bother with Skyrim. I have tried the Razer GameBooster for Team Fortress 2 and it only sped up my gane from 3 ish frames per second to 9, still mainly unplayable.

Yes I understand that this isn't a gaming system, however I'm not trying to pull off BattleField 4 and CallOfDuty Ghosts, I just want to put a little kick into my system, without having to pay much, okay, at all. I have no money really, but I make do with free games and demos etc. Any ideas are very welcome. And thank you for your time spent reading this novel of a post.

Yeah man, I think your laptop won't run anything that's a true "game" (in modern terms anyways)
Your laptop is like... for work, it doesn't really have a graphics processor that meets the minimum requirements of anything considered modern.
I'm sure it browses the internet and plays videos fine, but it doesn't have the necessary capabilities to create and maintain 3D environments.
It's also a pretty bad laptop, you have a slow hard drive, a slow processor, and slow ram as well. and these aren't like "not ideal" speed slow, these are SLOW slow.
Minecraft is CPU and RAM intensive, which you are severely lacking in, so even though it has "bad graphics" you don't have the things it really uses up anyways.

I understand this, I said that I wasn't wanting to, I was just wanting to put a little more power in so that there's a few more games I can play, and give my current ones a little boost. Any help is appreciated.
