    Just looked up my CPU on System Information. It says 'AMD Athlon(tm) X4 750K Quad Core Processor, 3400 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 logical processor(s)'. Does that mean my CPU is dual core? Windows doesn't like to tell me xD

    Hard Drive Problems :(

    I think reseating the SATA cable has seemed to work. I only just did it today and the driver has been installed but has not been applied (restart required) but since reseating the cable, it hasn't restarted...yet.

    Gmod run on celeron

    Generally, integrated graphics are not enough to run most games effectively as it shares resources with the CPU. As for playability for Gmod, I highly doubt it. It is a very old game and even my PC struggles sometimes. I used to play Gmod on my laptop before and I barely got 20 FPS.
