Empire Earth only requires a 4MB 3D video card, so you're in the clear on that one. Rise of Nations, however, requires a 16MB 3D video card so how much of your system RAM is dedicated to onboard video? You probably have many options - from 32MB to 128MB, give or take.

Since you have 256MB of total system RAM, I'd suggest setting the onboard video (in the BIOS) to either 32MB or 64MB.

Other than the onboard video thing, the rest of your system is more than fast enough for both of those games.
