Also, has it always been like this? If not, then it could be a failing hard drive...

First of all, is English your native language? If it is, please ensure you make at least some effort to spell your words correctly as it makes a huge difference in understanding what it is you are asking. If not, disregard, we'll try and push through best we can.

First off, what are the system requirements for those games? I am unfamiliar with them and just want to check that you are not playing games designed for a more powerful system.

Are you running any other programs in the background that may be eating up processor/RAM/GPU cycles whilst you are trying to play the games?

When you say "slow" what do you mean? Do you mean the game itself is slow ie. low fps? Do you mean that when you are playing a game the rest of the OS is slow? You have to be more specific.
 
Those are some pretty old games... are you running them in Mac OS X or in Classic? Diablo II can be updated to a Mac OS X native version here and StarCraft here.
 
When i say slow so i mean all system bot in computer games i can look it relly easy becures in Diablo2 EXP battle.net ist relly slow and lag.

when i use more in maby 5 to 10 window in Mac OSX ist lag when i shift from program to program ist really slow.

i don't know about there are program to kill my CPU, RAM and somthing in my system overview i can look


Ram:
lock: 66mb
aktiv: 224mb
passiv: 206mb
use: 501mb

free: 10mb
i only have 512mb right know and i am in OSX right now and not in game.


English ist not my best lang bot i try to type it :) becures in Denmark i can't find easy and fast help to my mac :( and if i use english forums can my English be stronger :)
