If that's onboard graphics, I doubt it will run vista at all. Also, those
E2140 processors are built for overclocking, mine was running at 3.0Ghz,
cooled only by the Intel cooler, which I was impressed with. It could run
Supreme Commander no bother. You could get a good performance increase by
upping the speed of the CPU.

Intel says it won't run with that graphics chipset. See
http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel945g/sb/CS-022649.htm

You need a separate graphics card, and it needs to be one that
supports hardware T&L, and preferably Shader Model 3 as well. The
nvidia 6600 or 6800 series would currently be the cheapest suitable
one, I think.

Oh, one thing you might try is looking for a user-created program
called "Oldblivion". It lets the game run on some older hardware, so
there's a chance that it might possibly help your problem.
