Hi, First time on here bring some issues onto the table. Might as well try here to see about fixing my issue so here goes.

I have an HP G62-340US with AtlasOS currenty installed on it as it has an 2 core AMD Athlon II P340 CPU,  Mobility Radeon HD-4250 Graphics, and 4GB of ram. I'm having 8GB DDR3 ram and a 1TB SSD being shipped to see if it increase performance, but now it seems I cant get CS 1.6 working on it. 
Here's the weird part, CS 1.6 worked on linux perfectly fine with no issues. However, over here on Windows 10, its giving me errors on needing a 16-bit color depth or OpenGL for some reason. I installed drivers, I even changed Windows ISO from Windows X-Lite to Atlas thinking it was an ISO issue, nothing is working. Here are the display settings for this laptop.

I do also have some smaller stuff I do need help on in answering. 1 is important, the other is optional.
I can run Counter Strike Source in Directx9, but when loading up into a match, Rivatuner shows the CPU being pegged at 100% utilization and becomes a stutter-fest with the iGPU barely doing anything. Though, once I switch resolution in the game to something else, the iGPU starts to properly work, the cpu sits around 70% utilzation, and it runs at a stable 60FPS. Why is it doing that?
I also do want to ask how I can get more display resolution options since the newest drivers for this iGPU are from 2013 and I cant create or adjust any of the resolutions?

If anyone can please help me with some of these issues, I would really appreciate it.

AtlasOS..

and proceed to put the laptop into a state where its like grandpaw on life support, Standard Windows 10 pegs this thing at 100% utilization when booting. It's either Atlas OS or nothing bub.

#

and atlas os takes a fresh standard install of windows and puts the processes down from 160 to 60.

#

i dont know what to tell you

Maybe you'd prefer a Linux variant if you want a light OS, but I do think the SSD will improve the performance vs. a HDD.

Still, we can't help you with debloaters (rule 1)
