I've got a P4 2.0 with 640mb RAM and a 20Gb Hard Drive, and I've got no problems at all.  You should be fine.  My guess is you'll probably get a pretty decent result, depending on your graphics card.

I've got a crap card, and I get superb graphics, though, so I can't imagine you doing anything less than me.

Enjoy! Wink

Hi

From the looks of your sepc, you should be able to knock everything up full whack. Wink
I've just put together an AMD2000xp system, while I'm waiting for my new ATI card I used my old Voodoo 2 card and the frame rates and detail are blinding. Grin
I guess people put too much emphasis on the video card.

Regards

P4 1.7 Ghz, 512Mb Ram, 60GB HD GeForce 2 MX400 with the sliders all at maximum at 800x600 screen size I found that these days I'm getting 30-35FPS.  These days my system seems more dependant on screen size than any other factor.  I have anti-aliasing controlled by the graphics card (4x) and switched off in fs2002.

This shows the quality of graphics I'm getting -

- It looks better when I'm flying, there is some reduction in quality from the uploading process, ie getting the shot below 100k.

With your system you should have no problems at all.
