I have 512MB of RAM, which is the minimum...will that still be enough to efficiently run Nightfall? I'm guessing I'd probably have to close down most of my programs to be smooth.

However, I do not have a GeForce or ATI card. These are the statistics of my video card:

You Have: Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller (Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller)
Video RAM: Required - 64 MB or better , You have - 96.0 MB
Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - Yes
Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 0.0

Is this good enough for the game?

Will my Intel® Graphics Controller work with Guild Wars?
Answer

The newer Intel® Graphics Controllers - for example, the 915G and the 945G - display Guild Wars very well. Some older Intel Graphics Controllers are not supported and may not run Guild Wars as it was intended. These include:
Desktops:

82865G
82845G
82815
82810

Laptops:

82852/82855
82830M
82815

As with any video card problems, you may be able to improve performance by obtaining the latest video drivers .
We regret that we are not able to offer support for any components that are below the minimum system specifications.

Hope that helps

Probably not. You might as well spend at least $100 to buy yourself a graphics card and not use integrated graphics. Even if you have a decent graphics card, you might need want to get 512mb (you can even go 256mb) of ram for the computer. I had 512mb of ram and it hits the cache alot and slows the computer down until I got a 256mb upgrade.
