    Try to find out what chipset and what processor, then ask back.

    If its middle to high end possibly yes, but maybe no.

    Also, you'd need a 64Bit OS.

    From what I can see, that notebook has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Those are 64bit processors, but in order to run a 64bit program you need a 64bit OS as DetlevCM mentioned.
