I plan on possibly getting Garry's Mod sometime next month, but my computer is an old hand-me down, most likely nabbed from an office building. I don't know the exact year this computer was made, but what I do have s some information on how it preforms with games. Another reason I made this topic is because when I ask random people I find on BL, they give me mixed responses. Instead of going on a wild goose chase, I decided to ask the densest population: the forums. Luckily, some of you know more about computers than I do, so you'll be able to figure this out for me.

Team Fortress 2:Opening TF2 leads to a black screen, and my computer's resolution getting forgeted up. The black screen can only be closed by either restarting the computer, or forcing the program to not respond.
Afterword:I don't want to spend 8% of my money on Gmod, only for it to be noting but a black screen on my computer. If you need any more information on how well my computer handles, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for your time. Here are some other questions:
