Will my system handle EQ

Hi, well, Im in Okinawa and my Desk top is back in the states, however I do have a compaq presario 3000, it has a p4 2.0 half a gig of ram, and an SiS 4x agp video card. Do you think It will be able to handle EQ? We just got cable internet in the barracks..This is a website that shows the system that I do have..

Thanks for the quick reply, I wasnt sure..Its not exactly a state of the art lap top, but I can only hope its does fair to middle as far as performance..

My bot machine is a Dell P4 1.8 Ghz, 256 mb of ram, and a GForce MXsomething card, not real sure on the card. But it runs EQ fine... takes forever and a day to zone into Natimbi sometimes but other then that it runs EQ fine.

Sis chipsets are generally not very good, and have many issues with EQ especially after the directx9 engine was put in. Mostly because of the way SiS chipsets handle transparencies and zbuffering. For everyone out there avoid SiS video chipsets at all costs.
