Look at the sticky http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/...d.php?t=106935 - run the sys req lab for HalfLife2 (same requirements)
Required Operating System: Windows 2000/XP/ME/98 Processor: 1.2 GHz Processor RAM: 256MB RAM Video Card: DirectX 7 level graphics card Recommended Operating System: Windows 2000/XP Processor: 2.4 GHz Processor RAM: 512MB RAM Video Card: DirectX 9 level graphics card Your biggest problem is likely to be the on-board Intel Extreme graphics and only 256 MB ram to share with it. It probably will run but not very well.

The other 8 is being used by the on-board Intel Extreme graphics. Unlike other on-board graphics solutions, the Intel chip is dynamically allocated system RAM as it needs it for graphics memory. During gaming, it could easily be using 64-128MB of your 256, leaving only 128-192 for the game and operating system. So in your case, increasing the system RAM or buying an add-on graphics card will be the only way to increase performance.
Without knowing what motherboard you have, we cannot tell you if an add-on slot is available for a decent 3d graphics card.
