Frank, Ed gave you the specs required. You didn't supply enough information for your question to be answered. What OS are you running?

I have Emachines Windows me. I have an ac'97 sound card. 2 cd drives (E) and (D). DSL for internet(SBC YAHOO) 3.77 GB in my local disk (C). IT says I have 566 MHz on the brain of my pc. Says High-color (16 bit) on my control panel when I click display. How do I find out my RAM? Any other info?

Frank, I'm presently running XP so it's a little different. Think I recall that the two are very similar. Look at start>programs>accessories>system tools>system information(?) think that's what it's called and it will tell you your specs.
Gut tells me you can do it, only drawback I can see is dialup. If speed matters in the game, you're in trouble. So long as speed isn't a factor, think you're all right. Never played the game so dunno.

Read Ed's response #1. I promise you that you have more than 24Mb of memory if you're running Me.
To find out for sure, right click on My Computer, left click on properties and read the screen that comes up.
Skip

It says I have 255.0 MB RAM so I guess I do have enough. I guess my computer can play it then.Thanks for the help, everyone

Frank, i played the same game a while ago on a slower machine than yours (and it only had 64MB RAM!). So i don't think you should much problems running it on yours.
