I have a fairly aged Gateway
2.4 GHz Pentium 4
512 RD RAM
Running Windows XP Pro
and a GeForce 4 Ti 4200
could my lag really be contributed to the RAM and GPU?

Man I had the exact same problem and I have the exact same machine two things though I have 1 GB RAM and now I have a GeFOrce 6600GT 265 RAM and my machine hums in the big cities, and I play on a server that has a queue in the afternoon. All I had to do was get the RAM and the video card and it works great now. I would get frame skips and such nothing to bad but got on my nerves. If you have titan bar you can put on the addin for performace and see what you are running at that should tell you whether its time to upgrade.
