Hi,
sorry but your card is too old, it's even older than octane itself ;)
you need at least a Fermi 5XX+ card for working with octane, kepler or maxwell is better ;)

Unfortunately no, your cards are too old. You need a card with a compute version of 2.0 or higher, for instance my GTX460 has a compute version of 2.1. According to this page here your cards are version 1.1:

You might be able to use Octane version 1.2 or earlier, as they support compute version 1.0 and higher. You will be missing a lot of features though. :(

Where can I download the Octane Version 1.2 for cinema 4d?

I'm not sure, as I don't use Cinema 4D, but you could check this page for the exporter:
