You shoudl be fine . not ultra high settigns tho
 
The game will be playable on DirectX 7 hardware (much older than what you have) and the rest of your machine looks to be powerful enough to run the game well.

You may not see all the bells and whistles that people with the latest hardware will, but you should still have a good gameplay experience.

You can run "dxdiag" from a command prompt to pull up your DirectX diagnostic window, which will give you a ton of useful info on your sound card, video card, and other stuff. That's a good first place to start when asking for support.

And welcome to the forums :)
 
Thanks for the replys,
I appreciate it....
B.T.W i know it must be anoeing to here the same questions over and over again,i'm not trying to get attention or anything...thanks again
 
Your comp should run fine. In CS:S beta (i know its not as detailed as HL2 so it runs better) at 1024x768 2X AA and settings on High I can get 40-65 fps on my old Gforce 4 ti 4200 64mb card. Im sure yours will run fine.
