Can I run Sims 3 on this machine?

Would I be able to run Sims 3 on a machine with the following specs:

# AMD Athlon 2650e Processor 800MHz FSB (Operates at 1.6GHz/512KB L2 cache)

# NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE Chipset

# 2 GB DDR2 Memory

# NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE Integrated graphics

# 160 GB SATA II Hard Drive (7200RPM)

# 18x DVD±R/RW SuperMulti Drive featuring Labelflash Technology

# Multi-in-One Digital Media Card Reader

# 56K ITU V.92 ready Fax/Modem (RJ-11 port)

# 9 - USB 2.0 Ports (5 Front, 4 Rear)

# Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic edition with Service Pack 1

Update:

I know what the system requirements are (see below) but I do not know if this machine meets those requirements. Sorry, computer lingo is not my thing and I don't understand if the system will work for the game.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

* Windows Vista (Service Pack 1)

* 2.4 GHz P4 processor or equivalent

* 1.5 GB RAM

* At least 6.5 GB of hard drive space with at least 1 GB additional space for custom content

* 128 MB video card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
