One thing I noticed was the dedicated memory as only being 64mb, not sure if that is enough and I thought to run the games, you had to have service pack 2.  I know when I was installing my games in my new computer, I read that you have to have the Microsoft updates for service pack 2 and higher.  I didn't see your graphics in the specs. :)

I don't have a separate dedicated graphics card it's a built in one  :( I just saw the 64 mb, but it says total display memory is 1695MB and 1631mb is shared soo I'm guessing thats why the 64mb is dedicated. What do you think?

I guess it would depend on the graphics card.  Mine in integrated too and it runs sims really well.  I always swore by Nvidia, but this one has a Radeon and it is great. :)
