    It would not work as it need DirectX 9.0c, and anyway it would be very slow. I have a full desktop at house which is running at 3.0GHz with a very high performance vid card and FS X is barely playable.

    Your best bet is very much bootcamp to play FS X. By the way I have just noticed you are running a MacBook.

    Forget about FS X, you are better off with FS 2004. Even with bootcamp, your video card is so underpowered you will have to remove a lot of graphic options to run FS X.

    At which point you will have removed everything graphics which makes FS X such an update from FS2004.
