Welcome to Computer Forum.

Depending on how much you have to spend ("aint got a chunk" is rather vague :D)
I would recomend upgrading to 2 GB of ram (that wouldnt be too much...) and maybe a new video card.

Also, for DX10, if you got a little more than a chunk of money to throw down, youll need vista.
 
I would definitely agree with the 2GB of RAM as a bare necessity. As for the video card, you want a minimum of a GeForce 7600 or equivalent, more if able.

I think we established the fact that he should upgrade to more ram :P
 
I won the race though :P

Definately second the "Better Vid Card" movement though.
Whats your budget?
