Setting the config file is for solo mining only. Works the same for all coin wallets, only the port settings might be different.
I don't recommend mining solo unless you have a rediclious amount of hashing power on hand.

The cgminer setup you post is basic and correct, but does depent on algorithm and on what type of CPU/GPU/ASIC you are using to mine a specific coin.

Sorry to tell u this but your machine is junk for mining. You will not be able to cover pay for the electricity spend with coins you mine. GPU mining was profitable about a year ago it is not anymore.
Nowdays you can either go for cloud mining, take a look at my signature for more info, or buy yourself an ASIC miner. You just cant make money unless you invest a lot of money. This is true for BTC as any other real business. Let me know if you need more help and good luck.

You can always let a few CPU cores mine while you do other things, but for pure mining it might be hard to get the cost for electricity back.

 @grouper fish i've never used cpu for minning we need other different type of configuration, and about electricity it's ok we have solar panel system in the building where i live

Consider coins that don't have much of a gpu advantage like Quarazcoin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=600658.0  or  monero:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.0

This might be interesting for you as well: http://cpucoinlist.com/

I don't mine any of them for I have an Scrypt asic.

Try googling for the right settings that go with your card. Because I have no idea.
Ow and look for a miner that is specific for nvidea cards.

You can try cpu mining on monero, seems like the most profitable for cpu currently.
