Hi mate are you sure? I have had other people tell me that the graphics card might not be up to scratch? However, people have then said that this is rubbish, so at the moment I am surrounded by conflicting opinions!!

You are right - your graphics card is not a good card. It is not designed for gaming. But the second poster in this thread gave some good advice: Try the demo. It's free and it will show you what to expect.

Your graphics card is bad, but not so bad you cant run a 5 year old game
