Yep, that's bad.

RAM is the cheapest and most effective way to beef up a system.

Your video card is simply too old and too underpowered to run the game, regardless of how much video RAM it has. You should at least get a 7000 or 8000 series nVidia card, or comparable ATI card to play the game.

would the game run properly if i upgraded my ram and my video card and i have a question about the video card i am planning to get a Sparkle GeForce 8500 GT Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI, (Dual Link) DVI, VGA, HDTV, for the video ram it says DDR2 doesn't really matter cause my system ram is DDR ram i dunno this video card is compatible with my computer will this video card do for L4D and for my ram right now i have 703mb as you already know and i supposed to have like 768mb but because my motherboard is 64mb shared with video or my to say my ram but i dunno if the game will detect my computer that it has 1gb
