That's not really an awesome PC...

 

I'd definitely free up some RAM if at all possible (by ending all non-essential processes), and run SA on the lowest settings to maximise performance.

the ram is pretty empty, a couple of weeks ago did a recovery so its like factory with not much memory used....how do i run it to the lowest setting?

Fire up SA and alter the necessary display settings in the pause menu options.

How many times have you tried it?

If you have version 1, try updating to version 1.01 (available from http://nomorehotcoffee.com/) as the advanced settings crash was one of their fixes. Alternatively, give jacob's Advanced Settings helper tool a try. Back when I had to play on a really low memory laptop (XP, 256MB system RAM, no clue on video) I used jacob's program to change the settings.
