Yes. My primary GW machine is a Mac Mini with roughly the same specs and except for very minor scenery popup issues it works flawlessly.
You did omit your video card however. If it's an onboard chipset that intel branded... tends to crash various areas of EotN.

Should work fine, as long as your graphics card is decent. Probably won't be able to run full specs, but even at medium power it should run fine. Although, post your video card specs just to be sure.

Buying something with these stats, it seems quite old. A p4 processor?
What is the price on this, and do you know what video card it has? It seems like a really weak computer to be "new". You can pick up a laptop tons better for pretty cheap, and a desktop even cheaper.

If it has Hyper Threading you might be able to get some power out of that old machine. Definitely get more ram, find out what it takes and get like 2 GB of ram and see if it has an AGP slot, if it does you can get pretty good cards like a Radeon HD 2600 in AGP still and they rock.

I only payed 140 for it so i got an amazing deal. It has to build in video card so i am getting issures with crashing. Fail. how do i find out what kind of slot i have so i know what video card to buy?

Open it up and look inside.
You're looking for...
That's a PCI slot, generally speaking, you don't want to use that for a video card unless that's all you have.
Or this...
That's an AGP slot. They're quite cheap to find cards for, and most likely, that's what you'll have in your computer.
Or last...
A PCI-E slot. Notice the difference, where the slot's break point is. On a PCI-E slot, it'll be towards the back of the case, on a regular PCI slot, it's closer towards the front of the case. PCI-E slots also generally have a locking mechanism, where regular PCI's don't.
Post back whichever you have.
