hi LadyVista

There seems to be many types of hp pavilion 061's all with different processes and graphics cards
From what i can see i can say yes your system will run the games you wish to play however without knowing the actual graphics card i cant be 100% sure it will

you could check back with us after clicking start and in the search bar type dxdiag and hit enter once the directx diagnostic tool has opend then click on the display tab
you will now be able to see the device name and manufacturer note these and return to us

Based on here,

The Sims 2 System Requirements

best I can say is maybe, and if it does it will most likely be with all settings on low.
