wow runs fine with 512M, you can get the footprint very small using game settings (I 5 box on a 3gig system at full settings, can run 10 with texture mem set to low). In any case It's pretty easy to tell on any system when ram is your problem, if you aren't swapping you don't have a problem. from a glance at your specs I'd wager it's the video card, I wouldn't expect that card to do very well in any OS running TBC.
