Roll 1d20. Add your modified attack bonus. Treat any die roll of 20 as 25. I, the DM, add the target's AC to this. If I use the Weapon vs. AC tables, I add them accordingly.
If your modified roll is 20 or higher, you hit.
It's a very, very simple system once you get started with it.

With the exception of the natural 20 -> 25 rule, your system more or less reproduces the same numbers I deduced from the 1st ed AD&D DM guide.
Adding the target's AC to the sum total of the attack roll does seem to make the bookkeeping easier. On first glance, it does look a bit like the 2nd ed AD&D THAC0 system in spirit.
