Get rid of the 2600 as quick as you can. The hardware components on that router ain't design to last this long. Let other people hold on to a burning matchstick.
In regards to simulators, like GNS, I am not familiar with them nor am I a fan of them. There are several people who posts issues in this forum about troubles with GNS as it doesn't behave as well as a real router.
If you need to purchase something for studies, get an ISR G1 (1800 or 2800 router but DO NOT get an 800-series router). For switch, get a Catalyst 3K with IP Base image.
These equipment are an investment. When you get your certification, you can put it back in the market and recoup your investment.

Good luck with that. I won't happen.
2600-series router has been end-of-support since 2006. Software development for this particular model has stopped since 2003.

series 2600 have enough memory space to install it
Even if there is DRAM and flash space to copy the IOS in there is no "version 15.X" for 2600 router. Software development for the 2600 has stopped a few years before IOS version 15.X hit mainstream.

And the 1800-series router is newer to the 2600-series router. The ISR G1 have better CPU and higher DRAM to load and run IOS version 15.X.
