My specifics are.
4gb rams, dual core 2.10 ghz,
All options are on low!

You can use ChrisFPS's autoconfigs to remove some stuff to gain a FPS boost. You can find several of his configs from the site here. I use my own version of Chris's high FPS config with all the things I need for a true TF2 feeling.

Might be a problem with the heatsink and fan which may have dust in it. It causes the laptop to go hot and have temperature throttling kick in which means slowing down the processes to cool down. That also causes lower FPS. You need to get rid of the dust if you haven't cleaned it for several months. It is a delicate process though and shouldn't be done unless you know how to. It is easier on a desktop than on a laptop. I cleaned mine from the dust that had gathered in it for less than a year recently and my FPS and computer temperature was stable again.

I'm not into gaming so I don't know what cfg is for bad computers?
And no matter how graphic will be, just want to play normal without big lags.

Max FPS config is for you then. It greatly reduces the graphics for FPS.

EDIT: I found way how to install, thanks, helped a lot.
