Default Is it possible to listen to music and play Guild Wars ?

Hi all, So my question is : Is it possible to listen to music and play guild wars at one time ? Because it like it much more if i could do it.

My Specs:
Amd Sempron 2.0ghz
Ati Radeon 9250 (128 mb)
512 ram

I play the game on medium-high.I use Winamp for listening to music and if i press Ctrl+alt+delete then it says that the use 9000-10.000 Kb from my memory.

So is it possible ?

Grtz
Rob

I should imagine so. I've got a Athlon XP1800+ (1.52Ghz) GF4200Ti(64MB version) and 768 Memory. I use Quinntessential player to listen to streams at 192kbs or MP3/ CDs locally. it doesn't effect my FPS really.

With teh system you have i'd go with Chuckman's suggestion and use an ipod, cd player or w/e instead of using your computer. You might find that your system will not like GW and winamp or any other media player for that matter.

It depends on your media player, I don't use windows media player, its a resource hog, even with the plugins disabled. I use winamp or foobar, they're great.
