yes you can! but once thing is certain, if its BTC or LTC forget it!
i am mining Xivra, Nyan, Doge, Hotcoin, and Mooncoin right now. on a laptop!!!!
i run the batch file under scheduled tasks and mine a different coin each day. i am currently editing a tutorial on youtube for alt coin mining newbies and will be making reference to bitcointalk.org as there are so many helpful members here that have got me this far.
my laptop has a cracked motherboard and can only be operated successfully tilted on its side, so it was bound for the scrap heap to start with.
if your doing it as a hobby buy yourself a watt-meter. around 10-15 bucks. its handy tool to keep costs under control.
i have an asus v50nv dual core 2.5ghz clocked to 3.1ghz stable using a program called getfsb gives me 14khs reliably. my setup uses around 40 cents of power every 1.25 days draws between 55 and 71 watts.
cpu only mining is piss easy to do once you learn the first time via pooler-cpu-miner for windows/intel for me.
i target really low difficulty alt coins via this forum and coinwarz.com
then i let it run for days on end. its good fun and cheaper than smoking, drinking, etc.
i do it for fun and the kids. if your lucky there may be a coin that takes off and you may come across a coin that is highly transacted you can use day to day.
and...yes...join a mining pool! but also check the query time for the pool your joining and where it is located. this can affect your mining.
enjoy...

You won't make much profit, but it is possible. I use a PC I built for gaming for mining, and its not actually that bad.

Your pc might lag a little, and you will not generate that much speed. Especially if your GPU is slow and your using it for something else (such as 3D gaming). I would prefer for you to create a Bitcoin Mining Rig. Bitcoin Mining Rig(Youtube Video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJSITD0sPVY |

Hello, Can I do mining with a normal PC? I have an i3!
It could take you like a year to make a dollar.  |
I vow never to use this space for sleazy referrals, gambling, spam, or to beg for handouts.

I recommend DOGE coin, Use Coinwarz.com to calculate how much you will make a day, It also shows the results in other altcoins.

You could try your luck with some altcoin which is not listed in any exchange yet. For example Solcoin [SOL] is still very easy to mine.
You may not got any money but at least some fun.

Yes, you can mine with a normal PC But no use mining Bitcoin directly as others mentioned, you can still change altcoins to Bitcoin if you want. I started with Litecoin mining on gpu, then got a hint about just released Protoshares from a irc-friend (inside nerd channel but I was the only one who started) and started mining it with cpu at same time. When it seemed that Dogecoin is here to stay, even some months, I changed to it from Litecoin with gpu, and when Metiscoin was published I mined it with cpu until difficulty was too high. Now I'm mining Protoshares with cpu and Dogecoin with gpu again, but when something interesting appears I will take the easy coins without hesitation. That's the interesting part on this hobby, always searching for something new that could be the next big thing Oh yes, I have i5 laptop too which have been mining protoshares nearly from start. No enough gpu power for mining, it has the slowest possible Nvidia chip, and cpu mining speed is a bit less than half of my desktop computer's cpu power (Ivy Bridge i5 4,2GHz). |

PTS is a profitable CPU only altcoin, I also like the wallet client its clean and easy to use. PTS can be easily mined using minerd and the pool recommended for it is beeeer.org
I know it sounds weird, But it is a real pool for PS and other altcoins an dpays out every 0.2 worth of the coin you mined.

Yes you can, but if you thinking that you going to be a millionaire in a month don't even try it.
If you're doing this for fun go ahead, just be aware that you will be using a lot of hydro and it is a timing consuming.
Ready more posts about it before you starting something that you don't know.

You can, but this question is like "When will I win the lottery?".

I gave Bitcoin to a stock exchange on blockchain.info and I put in 0.70 BTC and got 1BTC from the investment in ebay, But I cant say the same for you, Just be wise. |

What about alt coin mining if your normal PC is a gaming pc? I'm on a MSI GT70 with VGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 675MX. Waste of time and security risk (I use this pc to access servers I manage and client websites) or worth a shot? Any thoughts?

No, If you look at this site, Nvidia cards are useless no matter how expensive it is. https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison |

No, If you look at this site, Nvidia cards are useless no matter how expensive it is. https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparisonThey aren't that useless, they just have a relatively lower hashrate compared to AMD cards, but they are still worth something. |
