    Will I be able to play games like Lost Planet, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Company of Heroes and F.E.A.R with my 256MB ATI MOBILITY RADEON X1400 HyperMemory video card????

    It will run on low-medium settings, just don't expect much.

    Short answer: No.

    Long answer: They'll run, but chances are good it won't be playable.

    well i just tried the CoH demo (cause i wanna buy it) on my computer (specs in sig) and i had all the settings on default settings and it ran kinda okay. a bit slow at times and rly laggy at big battles. so i guess i'll have to turn down the settings a bit, but CoH is definately playable on an x1400

    the x1400 is slightly slower than the 7400 go and that can only run lost planet on all low settings 800x600 to get about 30fps. Which is confusing cause the graphics are not that good at all.

    I wish everyone programmed like valve. half Life destroys everyone when it comes to quality and speed of their programming.
