Yeah I think your PC should be able to run it. I checked out your graphics card as well and it has the specifications required.

Minimum system requirements for Supreme Commander:

Microsoft(r) Windows(r) XP Service Pack 2, Vista
• 1.8 GHz processor
• 512 MB RAM
• 8 GB available hard drive space
• 128 MB video RAM or greater, with DirectX 9 Vertex Shader / Pixel Shader 2.0 support
• Sound card, speakers or headphones
• 56.6 Kbps Internet connection required.

thanks again. What Graphics card would you reccomend and where is a cheap place to purchase? I see you have a 8600GT. Is this any good? (Sorry, all new to this!)

ya the 8600gt is a great card since im quite into pc gaming, but if ur not really into pc gaming its kind of an overkill, something like a 8400gs 256mb or 7600gt 256mb would be a good card for basic gaming needs, and a good place would be ebay.com or nvidia.com or even ur local pc store

It will run on that PC on probably low/medium settings depending on the screen resolution. I would definitely try to invest in a graphics card upgrade if possible though.
