I know because I used to have that same processor, about 2 builds ago (back in 2006 I think, and even then was subpar).

Also you have 1.25 GB of RAM. You'd best be running nothing in the background when playing TF2 or running a lot of things at once.

I best be getting a new processor and some ram.

I can run blockland very very smooth though even with max graphics which makes no sense. I mean I know blockland is run on old torque engine but i would think it would still lag

Put this in Launch Options:
-dxlevel 90 -autoconfig

then Disable Steam Cloud, delete your TF2 Folder, Verify the game's cache, run the game...

Okay so just don't do that stuff and have fun with your laggy game.

danielmoya:
stuffty computer. I had a Vista and I couldn`t even play Tf2 with at the instant closing it down are reseting my computer.

Soukuw:
Because TF2 has a forget ton of props (HATS) and your computer needs to load them up each time since you have a stuffty amount of ram.

That and your processor in general could have troubles loading them up rapidly as well.

coolitic:
You do realize that DXDIAG doesn't show dedicated GPUs? do u hav a dedicated GPU?
I will give you 3 reasons and it can be a combination of any of them: Not having a GPU, not-good-enough CPU, or not enough RAM.
