Running Vista Finally!

[MattGarner]

Today my new computer came and running Windows Vista Home Premiume. I do say HP are the best for pre-built computers, Mum ordered last night and it came today! Screen shot below of system information etc, Don't care what you think, it does the job for me.

Would like to say for people who thinking of getting Vista, It's bloody fantastic!

Looks pretty good dude, glad you like it. The specs are pretty decent, but whether they do what you want will obviously depend on what you run on it.

Nice, I want vista on our laptop, but my dad uses it and he wouldn't understand it probably xD Also, RAM isn't too good on this.

[omgDAN!]

Same specs as my laptop, 1gb ram, 2ghz proccessor, home premium. Nice setup then :).

Good how you got it the next day.

[HotelUser]

I want vista.

Need to add some ram to my laptop though, 512mb, so then I'll have 1gb of ram.

and I'm hoping my little 64mb graphics card can take some ram memory to allow it to be 128mbs.

[MattGarner]

Yer I was expecting two weeks until I get it. Got home from school and found a card on the doorstep saying its at number 47 so i went over and it was my pc :D

Could you post a screen shot of the one I did? Just would like to see about it, Cheers :D

[timROGERS]

Flisker, it'll be because you have a graphics card that uses some of your memory :) The Windows score only counts your lowest component ;)

[Scott™]

Yeh i lose like 0.13GB ram or something when it says it lmao

[DaveTaylor]

my lowest is 4.8, but the next lowest is 5.4 yay?

[Flisker]

The lower the better :S

[Scott™]

Higher rating the better lol

I have the same as you but with a 2.2GHz processor and I get Rating 3 lol

It helps if you have the right drivers too...

[Scott™]

[Josh-H]

4.1 what? ;)
I would guess at rating

[---MAD---]

Specs aren't bad at all. What graphics card do you have?

I am hoping to buy a new PC pre-installed with vista home premium too :).

[Scott™]

There is nothing in Ultimate that I really would want. Same with the business package. I think most people go for ultimate only because its the "best" version although it isnt necessarily if you dont use all the stuff in the package :).

True. I saw the pamphlet, it showed my a table comparing all the four versions. Ultimate had only a few more extras, which I don't need. Not surprising as Home Premium is the most popular version. Lmao, the technician at the store told me that his Home Basic was even worse than XP. :P

[Scott™]

Probably is lmao no one uses it :P
