Default Will video games work on my netbook?

I recently bought a disk drive for my Acer Eee PC with Intel Atom processor. I wanted to buy some games like Orange box to play on it, 1: is windows 7 too new to play a game from like 2000 on? and 2: will my netbook be able to handle the graphics?

Windows 7 will work just fine. I've played games older than that on it already.

Not for new games. You could probably play some old games on it though, you might have to drop the settings a bit though.

Not really sure what type of power you'd get from the Atom processor.
