You cannot play 1080p videos on that system. 720p could be possible but the integrated GPU is simply useless. You need an AGP video card which are no longer manufactured but maybe you could find one on-line. You need at least a Geforce 6200. But even then the CPU could simply be too weak especially on that motherboard.

Тhe PC is pretty old and weak but you should be able to play non HD videos with a video player. Most of youtube videos would not play smoothly. You really should get a new PC instead of trying to upgrade that one.
