Can I run FSX on my laptop?

Question

I got FSX a while back and it didnt run too well on my old laptop

HP DV6116
- 2.0Ghz AMD Turion Single Core Processor
- 1 Gig ram
- Geforce 6150
- 100Gb Storage
- Windows Media Centre 2005 Edition

My new laptop however is:

Toshiba A100-338:
- Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 Processor 1.6Ghz
- 1Gb Ram
- Intel GMA 950 128Mb (maybe 256MB)
- 100Gb Storage
- Windows Vista Home Premium

If you could help me that would be so great :)

Also I wanted to know if having a 1.6Ghz dual core would essentially mean that I had upto 3.2Ghz of power. I don't think it means that but it does confuse me.

Thanks, all the best.
