Hello,
that would depend on what you're interested in.

- Twilight

p.s. If you think that those are low system specs, then....!

Sounds like your video card is the weakest link, but you don't necessarily have to go out and buy a top of the line video card; you just need a relatively inexpensive upgrade to allow you to play some more games (or do homework, search the internet, etc. if your parents ask ). You can get a decent card for really cheap at pricewatch.com. Go for something along the lines of GeForce 2. The only problem is you'll have to install the card yourself. This isn't too complicated and you can probably find a friend to do it for you if you can't figure it out yourself. Good luck!

But if you don't have the money for a new video card, my advice is to search the bargain bin at your local electronics store. Games there are cheap and run well on older systems. In addition to Fallout and Baldur's Gate, I'd recommend Planescape: Torment and Diablo.

I recommend Vampire the Masquarade and Deus Ex. Awesome graphics, but since they are 2 year old they should run fine on you machine.

There is always the X-Com games. The first and 3rd I think were the best. And it might be hard to find (7+ years old) but Master of Magic was a great game that has been discussed recently in this forum. If you like RTS, then there is of course Star Craft and Dune 2000.
