Does anybody have the minimum specs?
I will post my low tech specs here and could you tell me if my PC will support it (it can play Sims 2 if that helps)

Processor is fine - minimum is 1.2, recommended is 2.4, you are 2.8
RAM may be ok, recommended is 512, you have 480?
Graphics card wont be ok. It looks like an onboard card and therefore won't be able to render anything like fancy water, or detailed textures etc.

Several points....
+ make sure you use a mouse
+ dont ever use the pad or lump thingy for FPS games
+ im not sure about the gfx cards...take a look on www.ebuyer.co.uk, im sure it will explain al on there.

You won't be able to stick a gfx card in a laptop unless it's a custom one from Dell or Alienware or the like. The generally don't have a PCI architecture, and are real bitches to open up then put back together properly.

I'm not sure...
It might run in lowest settings if you're lucky. But an SiS 650 isn't compliant with T+L as far as I know.
