ANother question, how can i put Java on an Ubantu computer?

Installing Java on a Ubuntu computer is very tricky. I had to do it once and there were a lot of commands involved. But I was making an offline install.
Try this guide:

I had a laptop almost identical to that. Faulty battery, clogged up OS. I tried hosting a server off of it and the laptop overheated after about 10-15 minutes. Don't try running a server for more than a few minutes.

Three words: Laptop go boom.

Lancet13tywilburn16Well it says i can host one for 11 members but im sure forge servers get WAY less than that.
I wouldn't run a server on that laptop of yours unless it's a local server and only going to be temporary.
I think you could host a few players. However, trying to host a server off that all the time wouldnt be the best idea.

Laptops, when put under pressure like that, tend to heat up quite a bit over time. (I have used a laptop as a server before. It shut down due to overheating 8 times).
It would be better to use a 5~10 year old desktop to run a server than use your laptop to do so. Even if the 5~10 year old desktop is really outdated and weak, at least it will handle that heat better than your laptop can.

It should be able to. However, you need to have good enough internet speeds too.

i like this computer and i dont want to get a new laptop but is there like a way i can change the grapics card or something like that

There is no way to change a laptop GPU.

Sounds like this computer just needs a fresh reinstall of Windows 7, or you simply need to uninstall excess, and useless applications on the laptop.
As for your battery, it may be time to get a new one, if they still make spare batteries for your laptop model.
Other than that, it's a solid machine for handling documents, some HD Youtube videos, and light gaming (as in games released earlier than 2005, or games with very low system requirements).
It's a great choice for a high school student or entry college student that needs a laptop for homework and web browsing.
