Your hardware is way too old. Most of the newer miner software requires newer drivers and most of the newer drivers don't support your cards.

If you want to learn for fun, just get a SHA256 Bitcoin USB miner on eBay for like $20 and it will teach you how everything work. You will probably not make a penny out of it keep in mind.

Or go on Craiglists and find an old and cheap GPU like the R9 270X, which can be picked up for $50 and you can mine XMR with that. Profits will be around $0.30-0.40/day/per GPU however. Not great but right now is not the best time to start mining.
