The CPU and RAM check out OK. You don't need much to play Morrowind. But do you have a dedicated graphics card or intergrated?

Oh you'll be fine. Any half modern computer can run Morrowind. And if it can play WoW, even better. WoW would be more resource needy than Morrowind.

In case you don't know already: vista and morrowind don't seem to work well together, you'll have to run the game as admin. You can check the common technical problems thread (sticky) for more info and examples for things going wrong.

Best Vista tip - dont install into C:\Program Files. Its a protected space, and Vista gets really snarky about accessing it.

Install to C:\Games\Morrowind, or similar. Then you should have less(!!) problems with Vista.

Of course, if you upgrade to Win7, a lot of the Vista yik goes away. However, even then it is best to install to anywhere else but C:\Program Files.
