according to this your're qualified for the minimum ones. GTA4 is very dependant on the CPU. Probably you will have to decrease the details to lowest settings to run it smoothly.
The x3100 is an onboard video card. I don't think it'll run with that, even if everything else is fine.
Like what Skunk said, it's a very hard game to run well. Chugging a long at 25-30fps in open areas isn't fun, and it certainly isn't fun when it drops down to 18-20fps.
The only computers I've seen that play it like it should be played are PC's holding an i7, and getting a constant 50-60fps :huh:
