It should be able to run CS shouldn't it?

 

[thraxes]

Starcraft!!!
Diablo 2
Age Of Empires 2

Sim City 3000 will run well also.

EDIT: Yeah, how could you forget Starcraft??? That is my main game on my ancient P90 Laptop!

Civ 3 should also run pretty good.

Heroes of Might and Magic (3 or 4)

 

[DaveSimmons]

2D RPGs? Fallout 1-2, Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate 1-2, Icewind Dale all are under that for even their "recommended" systems.

2D squad-level tactical with RPG elements - Jagged Alliance 2

also - Heroes of Might & Magic 2-3 (not 4!).

 

[thraxes]

commandos 1 & 2
sudden strike
worms

 

[zShowtimez]

I second Jagged Alliance 2. Awesome game.. Might have to play it again now

 

[Willoughbyva]

How about some of the early tomb raider games?

I just played it a little, really fun and hasn't asked for money yet!

As mentioned earlier, Arcade, NES, SNES, Genesis, and Game Boy emulation is well-suited to that machine.

The free "Dedrianna Lives!" mod / conversion is fun too. It changes elements of the game (Dedrianna clones everywhere) and adds new guns and napalm gernades.
