We suggest the following minimum specification :-
  • 1Gb of Memory - it uses about 700mb just to get to the desktop.
  • 64Bit Processor
  • 20Gb Hard Disk Space is required for a base install and systems restore points.
  • An AGP or PCI-E Graphics Card, not an integrated version.
  • DVD Rom

We have ran Vista on 32bit PCs and on PCs with less RAM but it is very poor and all of the new graphical feature had to be turned off.

We predict that this high standard will see either and end to cheap Laptops and Desktops or a slow uptake in Vista PC Sales.
