Tough call, the 200M is an integrated version of the X300 and supports DX9 natively so it has that going for it. However Oblivion is graphics-intense, a gorgeous game. However the fact that it's an integrated chip and that it likely does not have dedicated VRAM makes me doubt it'd be able to run the game at anything like decent graphics, if at all.

Go here and scroll down to The Elder Scrolls Game and run the test it will check to see if your PC can run the game.

It should be able to handle the game without too many issues. You may not be able to support all the eye candy at once without a performance hit but the game will surely play on your laptop.

hmm...not too sure about that website to test system requirements.....it told me i dont meet recommended system specs for fable: the lost chapters...i can play it just fine without frame dropping issues and all the video settings cranked up.......may work better for identifying minimum requirements though.....
