Even if the game does load, it won't play well. Not even at lowest of the low graphics settings.

Also, you need a key to play this game, so simply downloading it won't help.

Eeek! That's almost as old as my friend's PC. Sorry to say, it won't run at all. I sometimes play in low terrain (PvP purposes) and still I get lag when I make a sharp turn with my camera or something. My advice is, go buy a new computer (or upgrade), trust me, the money is worth it 1,000 times.

Yeah, like the people above said: If your computer specs do not meet the requirements, don't even try! That's why they are called requirements :P. Don't even upgrade your computer (UNLESS you buy NEW parts for the whole computer). And if you don't know how to put the pieces together and assemble your own, just buy a pre-built one. You WILL need a better computer in the future anyways.

take my experience running Guild Wars! i have it install on my desktop (aka, my gaming computer) and few weeks ago, i try to load the game onto my laptop, its has the same kind of spec as your computer, but i got a 256MB on my computer and a on-board videocard. Ran the game and it did work but the graphic is awful and it run slower than snail.

By the way, the spec for my computer is Pentinum 4 2.0Ghz, 512MB, and ATI Radeon x800 xt PE! you need to have at least 512 MB memory and a decent videocard to run this game, as for CPU i think that a good opinion unless you want to upgrade your computer.
