Yeah, probably will, if you run it on low.

If it's about the money for buying it: do you have someone to lend the game from to test is before? The video card might be a problem. As well as might be using vista instead of xp. I think the system fits the minimum requirements, but I would never bank on them. (Developers sometimes tend to vary about the definition of "running". for example: vanilla freelancer on the minimum requirements and then pick up a mission against 8 enemies + backup for you = fail). Things like unnecessary data on your hard disk or just a slow disk are often ignored.

do i just make the requirments?

and i use XP

and if dodgy, i can get a graphics card easy.

and if it helps its call of duty 4:Dfirst time trying it

its not the space i am worryed about, its if it will run

Since your CPU is not a dual core as far as I read, the video card would have to compensate that. And the Intel GMA cards work with shared memory, so they use some of your RAM to run. Since the GeForce 6600 has 128Mb that might be 128Mb RAM less, still enough to run the game, and still some left to compensate the CPU. Might work. A friend of mine has it and I'll go ask him if he ever tried to run it on an underequipped PC. The game might already abort while starting if it detects the hardware.

ok cheer's, i think it will work to be honest, thats probably half my details, the others are stored somewhere.

My machine is crappier than yours, and I can still run CoD with a decent fps rate. Don't mind the detail settings, the gameplay itself will make you forget about them:P

So yeah, go for it man.

Aye, the multiplayer is awesome. Hundreds of players, a crapload of maps and many game modes. It's fun, the more you play, the more addictive it gets, because as you level up, you get better weapons, perks and all sorts of gadgets. ^^
