Looking at your systems specifications

and that games system requirements

I'd say that you should easily be able to play it.



The NVIDIA® GeForce™ 6500, 6200, 6150* and 6100* GPUs feature a revolutionary design that delivers best-in-class performance on today's hottest games and applications. The only GPUs in their class to support Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0 Shader Model 3.0, these GPUs power the latest effects without compromising performance.

Answer 2

System Requirements are low, however you do need a video card, not integrated graphics (GeForce 6100).



32MB Direct3D Compatible video card and DirectX 8.1 compatible driver or better



Recommended:

NVIDIA GeForce2 GTS, or ATI Radeon 7500 or faster video card.



Supported video card chipsets*:

NVIDIA GeForce4; NVIDIA GeForce3; NVIDIA GeForce2; NVIDIA GeForce 256; NVIDIA TNT2; ATI Radeon 8500; ATI Radeon 7500; ATI Radeon 7200; ATI Radeon; ATI Rage 128; Matrox G550; Matrox G450; Matrox G400 or better.

Answer 3

Yes, Your PC can run Morrowind. Just barely.



If you wish to do serious PC gaming, you'll have to upgrade to a PCI-Express graphics card. Something like a Radeon 4650 or GeForce 240 at a minimum. Unfortunately, that usually requires you to upgrade the power supply at the same time.
