I ran with a Pentium G-630, 2x4GB DDR3 RAM (something like 1333) and an Nvidia 210 and it does cut it pretty close running at 1440x900. I doubt it will run at a considerable amount of frames, but don't loose hope. CPUs are dropping in price and as long as you have extra DIMM slots you can make it work, but for $200 CAD or so. Judging by what Intel says about the processor you could buy a Core 2 Quad (or even Core 2 Duo) and it would work, but I doubt the motherboard it was paired with will have a high enough RAM cap judging by LA 775's life span only barely touching DDR3 at 1333, and most DDR2 caps at 2GB per socket on main stream boards. Check the motherboard specs (or use CPUz and save a report) so we can know the limits of the rig...

I had the Radeon 5450, 2gb of ram, some amd dual cpu a few months ago and I could not run Minecraft properly on 1024x720 without everything going up to 100%. He should get 4gb of ram and an amd cpu with four cores and maybe a low-end gpu(7750/7770) if his budget is low.

If your friend is using 32-bit Windows system, please only install up to 4GB RAM, as 32-bit systems can only support up to that size of RAM.

If your friend uses 64-bit system, its recommended to install up to 6GB ram also if he only want to play vanilla Minecraft without any high resolution texture pack. (as latest vanilla Minecraft version's minimum required memory size usage is NOW 2GB, thought the recommended spces stated that you should get at least 4GB of RAM)

And there is one thing you MUST know about, is that by default, 32-bit Windows system itself will use 1GB of RAM, while 64-bit Windows systems will use 2GB of RAM just for the system itself. So if you got the 64-bit Windows installed on the laptop it's recommended to upgrade the RAM as much as the chipset itself can support.

So according to the recommended requirement of the game, your GPU is enough to run the game (as it stated that it need at least GeForce 200 series to achieve the recommended requirement), but you need to upgrade your CPU as the minimum required CPU to run the game are either Intel Pentium D or AMD Athlon 64 (K8) that both need to have at least 2.6 GHz. I recommended you to install an Intel Core i3 processor that have at least 2.8 GHz, since to me Intel is more better than AMD's processors.
