Computer requirements

I know absolutely nothing about computers, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if my laptop could handle a certain game.

The requirements are:
FOR WINDOWS VISTA
* 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
* 768 MB RAM
* A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
* At least 4 GB of hard drive space, with at least 1 GB additional space for creations.

I have a HP Pavilion tx1000 Notebook PC.

Most new laptops come with a P4 2.4 or above processor with 2gigs memory and a 160 gig Hard drive so it will run most if not all games. Hope this helps :-)

The only problem I found with laptops is the graphics card, the laptops I had the power to play certain games but the graphics card let it down (its the shared one) but I am not quite sure on the specifics
