    Default Re: Is it time to upgrade to Windows Vista?


    no. dghan hardware dili pa vista-capable. and vista's got a lot of bugs pa. so lisod pa au mu.upgrade. i tried running vista as my OS but then when i connect to the internet, naglisod ug connect.

    most technicians and ISPs are not familiar with the Vista OS. so better not upgrade lang sa.

    i upgraded to vista. works for me.

    my hardware:

    Proc: Athlon XP Mobile 2500+ (Socket A)
    Mobo: Epox 8RDA+ Pro
    Mem: 2 GB ( 2 x 1GB ) Patriot DDR400
    Video Card: Palit NVidia 6600GT AGP (128MB 128bit).

    As you can see, it's an old ass rig and it can run vista with no problems at all.

    Pero it's true that it's a memory hungry OS. So if you have 1GB below, forget it.

    The only reason why you need to upgrade to vista is to be able to use 4 gigs of RAM.
    Since Windows XP can't detect 4gigs of RAM.
    Everything else is basically the same except vista consumes more memory.

    BTW here is a better way to decide how to choose a Vista version when you upgrade:

    I really agree that an old rig can run vista smoothly as long as you have atleast 1GB ram. You really don't need to upgrade everything on your PC.

    I don't know why people say Vista has a lot of bugs because when I used it, it ran silky smooth. Also, I believe XP 64bit can use all 4 gigs if you have it. Same with Vista, you need 64bit to use all 4gigs of RAM.
