    If the graphics card has at least 512 meg onboard. You didn't say which version. 512 seems to be a barrier for this game. Lower ram onboard causes a bottle-neck.

    CPU is a little slow.

    On lowest settings in game it should work.

    Id advise using Windows XP with 2gb RAM.

    Or upgrade to 4GB ram if possible (its cheap, just make sure its possible on your computer)

    Hi, I have a PC with a similar setup to you have, the same Graphics Card too. One thing would advise as a future upgrade is to upgrade that, it will run the game on a customized low to medium settings but you will have to fiddle about with the setting for your own preferance. You could be a decent video card in there for about 90 pounds.

    Maybe get some more RAM because you're running Vista? Apart from that I see no reason why it won't run, but with that GPU I'd advise turning your shaders down from 3.0 to 2.0 in the game settings before you play it. Otherwise it might go all pear shaped when you start off, it did with me and I have a 8500 gt with 512mb. Not exactly reccomended either but then again no slouch!

    At very least stick an extra Gig of RAM in there if youre running Vista or you may regret it.

     

    Also as has been said before also upgrade your graphics card when you can.

    Great ram is so cheap now, there's no real point not to have 3-4gigs.

    umm, I agree with everything you said EXCEPT that his CPU is alittle slow.. You do know he said 6400, which is midrange+ and it is not slow. It is in fact a rather good speed, specially for playing Age of conan.
