The minium requirements are:
800 MHz processor
256 MB RAM if Windows XP
128 MB RAM if Windows 98, Windows ME, or Windows 2000
At least 3.5 gigs of free hard drive space
32mb graphics card

You 'may' be able to play it.

It's HIGHLY unlikely that youl be able to play the game at an acceptable level. get something like a

AMD Athlon XP 2400+
512Mb RAM
Geforce FX5200

I wouldn't recommend going much cheaper than that, maybe a bit less RAM, or slower processor, but even this system probably wont run it perfectly.
Not sure though, never actually seen the game

your suggested system is a little overkill for just sims2. However, i do not think that you will upgrade just to play sims2 and nothing else. Then i would be looking at a system like livingdecay's. Maybe even more processor speed so that you can keep it around a little longer.
