    Hi guys,
    I just bought a Dell Inspiron 6400 with this spec:

    Intel Core Duo Processor T2050 1.6GHz
    1024 RAM
    120 GB Hard Drive
    Intel GMA 950

    I'm not expecting it to play Half-Life 2 or anything as its mainly for uni. I just wanted to know whether you think it will play these games:

    Age of Mythology
    Battlefield 1942
    Command and Conquer Generals
    Medieval:Total War

    Thanks in advance

    Generals should be fine. I don't know about the others, I haven't played them.

    It should be fine at Half-Life 2 as well. That game can run on virtually anything... :)

    BF1942 definately works. As does Battlefield Vietnam.

    Generals works too, and the other two should work fine.
