@ Fazz, BenKenobi and everyone else naysaying laptops.
I've been playing Bioshock, Call of Duty 4, Orange Box, Mass Effect, and NWN2 using directX 10 and Vista with no more trouble than I ever had playing games on a desktop. The trick is making sure you cool the hell out of it with a cooling fan. (I use a Zelman ZM-NC2000)
Laptop relative specs:
2.2 Intel Core 2 duo
2 GB DDR3 RAM
NVidia 8600GM 256 RAM
17in HD LCD display
The OP's laptop, however, is garbage for game playing and it's doubtful he'll even be able to upgrade the video card in it, but good luck.
