HP isn't known for selling game-capable systems at all. If the game requirements don't inlcude a 7300 (which AFAIK, is what that amounts to), you should know that the most important part of a game system is its video card, and when you allow the producer the luxury of choosing your video card for you, you don't have much.
I've visited GPU Review before posting, and as I thought, they don't list any "7500" at all. I'm betting that it's the same as this one, though:

(Edit the first, added this) Incidentally, there is some defect in all of the 7300 cards that mostly shows up as occasionally pixelated images, such as an odd checkerboard pattern in the skies of NWN2 that can be eliminated by running the game windowed (which has its own drawbacks). As far as Guild Wars not running well, given the practically non-existem requirements for that, I would blame Vista or too many background processes.
(New Edit) A fast Google turns up nothing much, but did confirm that the 7500 is the same as a 7300, *PLUS* the information that Turbocache (nasty stuff there for a gamer) is the usual for the 7500 LE cards.
There was this much: http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=Articles&go=read&arc_id=99
