i bought hp pavilion g4 1015dx equiped with ATI radeon mobility 4250, and i was wondering if i can run crysis 2 on low and midsettings with
some other graphic intensive games. Specs are Ram 3gig, processor Athlon p360 dual core 2.3ghz, dedicated video memory 256mb. Total available graphics memory 1405mb.

If the games even run at all, they won't run well, even on low settings, Radeon 4250 is about as low as you can go these days with out stepping down to Intel Graphics.

The CPU is also a very low powered, low performing Dual Core, so it won't exactly be helping things either.

And since this is a Laptop, a low end, budget laptop none the less, your pretty much stuck with what you have for CPU and GPU, with no upgrade options really.

some lower performing 3D games, and older games from a couple/few years ago may run decently at low to mid settings, but not Crysis 2. In fact I'd be surprised if Crysis 1 even ran decently at low to mid settings on that thing.

Scroll down on that last link and you'll see some game benchmarks showing Low and High Setting Framerate numbers, some of the similar games to Crysis 2 (Metro 2033 and Far Cry 2) won't even run with that low of a GPU. Most other games don't fair too well with low settings either, with exception for a few.
