You should be able to, but it's more dependent on your graphics hardware than RAM. I installed Vista RC2 on my 5-year-old tower (which has 512MB RAM and a 256MB ATi Radeon 9600 graphics card) and Aero chugged along fairly decently.
I just got a new computer that came preinstalled with Vista, but I really don't like it because it just seems to be so slow. My new computer has a much better video card (256mb) and a gig of ram, as opposed to my old 16mb video card and 512mb ram,...
I bought a new cpu ZT
Pentium 4 HT 3.0Ghz, 2GB Ram, 250 Hard drive, Video Card 512Mb Ram ATI,
This day i got 3x Hang/Freeze but my CPU run so smoothly 24/7days Open
Any idea what happening to my cpu? (Sorry my english is bad) 3rd Languages =(
I want to upgrade to Vista Premium however, I have done the compatibility software. It tells me that 512mb ram will run vista but recommending more (should I get more ram to upgrade?) and it said it needs 128mb video card but mine is only 64mb.
