Laptop Gaming

Hi, I'm fairly new to PC's/Laptops and have recently bought a Toshiba A100. Will this be any good for gaming? What sort of games would/would not run well on it? I like driving/sport/action games.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks.

Thanks Pharoah, I have the A100 337 which I believe has;
Intel Core Duo T2250 Processor 1.73GHz
- 533MHz FSB, 2MB Cache
- 1024MB RAM, 60GB Hard Drive
- Dual Layer DVD ReWriter MultiDrive
- 15.4" Widescreen TruBrite Display
- Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium
- 128MB Intel GMA 950 UMA Graphics

How good is this for gaming? Are there certain games that will not operate properly?
As you can tell, I'm quite a novice, but this site is certainly helping me

Thanks,

your laptops only weak point is its video.the intel gma950 isnt really a gaming gpu.it could play older games at decent settings,but dont expect it to run extremely graphical games like oblivion,fear,stalker etc.
