Probably yes, but with everyting down and still with major slowdowns, not enough RAM + very slow CPU + very slow Graphic card = I do not suggest to try it. |

It runs well on my 600 celeron, 198 ram, and GeForce2 MX 200 32MB with all the options turned down and some tweaking.
Framerates
Indoors- 15-50 avg. 22
Outdoors - 10-20 avg 14
Worst Framerate - 9 (outside Vivec or in Balmora)
So it should run decent on your setup...I'm a little skeptical of the 128 ram though |

If you're running Win98/ME, you'll get playable frame rates at everything turned to the lowest. If you're running XP, your computer will grow arms and kill you for even trying it - the minimum requirements for XP are 256 megs of RAM. My jerk-like suggestion? Buy an XBOX

I say buy a stick of 128. It's cheap and you need it anyways.
I also have a PIII 500 with 256 meg pc133 and run Win XP. I started Morrowind using a tnt 16mb card. It was barely playable at lowest settings. I knew I needed a new video card so I got a GF4 MX440 64mb card and the game runs real smooth. I play at 800x600 with max distance. _________________ T®îßã£Måñ

Assume we are dealing with PC133 sdram
128mb = around US$30
256mb = around US$50
RDRAM goes in pair so it will be much more expensive.
If you can spill US$600, then you can get a P4 1.7G w/256mb RAM, 20G HD, Ge4 4200.
With enough memory + faster CPU + good video card = you are all set. |

Very well then, if everybody asks if the game will run on their system I shall do so too:
900MHz AMD Athlon CPU
192mb RAM memory
Windows 2000 OS
3d Prophet 4000xt 64mb graphics card
Would Morrowind probably run on my system? |

Yes, it will run.
You will get decent framerates (if 10 in critical areas is enough for you) and decent, but still low quality. |

What GPU is this graphics card based on? |

Let me clear this out...
This is my computer:
900 Mhz AMD Athlon CPU
256 MB Ram
Geforce 2 MX
Windows XP
I can hardly run it... indoors its okay. But outside... i have to have everything on the lowest, no shadow, no view-distance... so, anyone with a computer below mine... can't run it smooth. |

Rawis: I saw it run on a P2 (yes TWO) 400, 192mb and a tnt2 32mb, and it ran at 8-15fps in town at 800x600 1/4 view distance. Not bad at all. |

While we're at it...
My laptop, a P3-M 1GHz w/ 256MB RAM and a GeForce2-Go 32MB card, runs it beautifully. I have it set to 1024x768, with draw distance set 3/4 of the way out, shadows off, and low AI distance, and I get a constant 40fps indoors and usually around 20 outdoors (10 in Balmora/Vivec). But my desktop, a P3600 w/32MB GeForce 256 and 128MB RAM, can't even get 10 indoors. Both are running XP.
Meh.
