xr3yzx Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 You also need the minimum GeForce Nvidea 6150 i think, Im getting the 8400 with my laptop! The other option for gfx card is Radeon x700 and up, I recommend the GeForce 8400 though;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Odan Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 I have an Nvidia GEForce 6200. Kinda in a tight budget XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xr3yzx Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Ouch, all that could do is run halo 2. It would be really laggy, and you would barely be able to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jab1981 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hmm, I want to play this, I have a Nvidia 8600GT but is Vista stil really bad and buggy? Vista runs like a dream for me. I might be in the minority here but I've not had any major problems with it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Lo Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Could the following run Halo Vista? Intel ® Pentium ® 4 CPU 1.70 GHz 1.69 Ghz, 1.00 GB of RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieface Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Could the following run Halo Vista? Intel ® Pentium ® 4 CPU 1.70 GHz 1.69 Ghz, 1.00 GB of RAM Whats your graphics card? But also with that Processor I SERIOUSLY Doubt it, it won't be able to run Vista anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Lo Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Whats your graphics card? But also with that Processor I SERIOUSLY Doubt it, it won't be able to run Vista anyway I'm kind of am idiot with computers and I don't know where to find what type of graphics card or hard drive space I have. My dad's computer is better than mine I think, so I'll put its information on here later to see if it's able to run Vista. Also, when I get Vista, will I have to remove XP off of my or my dad's computer? I really want to play Halo for achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Lo Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Vista overwrites XP Uh oh. If I do that on my dad's computer, I don't think he will be too happy. Is there any major difference between Vista and XP besides Vista can play Shadowrun and Halo 2? This is my dad's computer: HP Pavilion Intel ® Pentium ® D CPU 3.00 GHz 3.00 GHz, 1.00 GB of RAM Physical Address Extension Can my dad's computer run Vista? Where can I find how how much hard drive space I have and what type of graphics card I have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where can I find how how much hard drive space I have and what type of graphics card I have? I use Vista on my media centre PC, you need a lot of ram I would say at least 2gb. If its your dads PC I would leave it alone or at least ask his permission before you install Vista. There are a lot of differences between visat and XP and to be honest Vista is still quite buggy if he uses it for work there is a chance some of his programs he uses may not work on vista. It is possible to make a dual boot operating system PC but im not to sure on how to do that. Sorry You will find out what type of graphics card you have by going Clicking Start Then right click on My Computer and select properties Once thats up select Hardware from the tabs, on that tab click device manager Once thats up click the plus next to Display Adaptors and voila it will show you what type of graphics card you have. Disk space is easy open my computer and right click on C: and select properties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Capitaine Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Actually, I don't feel like Vista is buggy at all. I got one of them coupons when I bought this computer, so I got the OEM disk. 32-bit only, unfortunately. However, 1GB of RAM (which, unfortunately, is all I have atm), Is certainly not enough. Just having Vista open and running firefox is usually about 70% of the memory... I don't know about the state of 64-bit drivers, but the 32-bit ones are top-notch. Only thing that didn't work is a crap scanner thats 10 years old, so it was an excuse to get a new one. The only problem I've found is with some compatibility with older programs. Some dislike dual-core on Vista, Partition Magic doesn't work anymore...But Vista's disk manager can do those things anyway (for the most part) So anyway, 32-bit vista will be fine. Personally, if you know how, I would leave a 5-10GB partition and leave XP there in case you have any problems. Also Vista upgrade disks can leave your hard-drive intact, but a clean install is usually better, and makes your computer run faster. If you want to backup before installing Vista, Microsoft just released Windows Live Skydrive Beta, which gives people who sign up 500MB of free storage. Signup is free, ATM. skydrive.live.com If 500MB isn't enough, I have a 150GB FTP server I would be willing to help with. Just PM or email me.
