Should work... although that would be the minimum requirement.

After installing, run setup and set your texture detail to LOW, turn off specular highlights and lightmaps.

This should allow you to play the game smoothly. Then you might try turning on some of these options, I would turn on lightmaps first as they make the game look really good. (Thats what makes the portholes in the ships look like light is coming out on the darkside of the ship).

Specular highlights make the ships look shiny, like metal.

The texture detail sets the maximum texture size, which affects how much texture memory is used by the game.

LOW = 256x256
Medium = 512x512
High = 1024x1024

Ummm as you can see in some of my previous post (called requirements) i said that with a 266MHz+ a vodoo3 2000 3dfx card, (sound blaster bla bla bla) window 98, 96MB ram, and 56K(running with atleast 42K[tested it and it will not lag mutch]) the game will work. But with that confing don't enter games with 15 and+, too laggy. But for your specs, wou wil definitevy be able to run the game. Just put it at low, with no music, and everyting faustus said

Have fun!
