    My guess is no, sorry to say, but the specs call for a quad core, you have a low clocked dual core, thats a pentium on top of that; to compound the issue, your GPU has only 24 CUDA cores. A friend of mine with a Core2Duo at I believe 2.2ghz and a 9700m (or 9800m, cant remember) was barely able to play the alpha...granted it was an alpha. Another with a G60 @2.3ghz and 260m did better, but effiecent coding will only take you so far :(

    Your GPU situation could be remedied with an eGPU, but your CPU is a bottleneck too, and afaik theres nothing you can do about that. Perhaps look into Overclocking, or if your model is capable of a CPU upgrade. Otherwise, you'd need a different computer, or a console :p
