Will this PC run Vista?
I have a few questions... Should be easy to answer. First of all, will this PC run Windows Vista Home Premium, and how good will it run?

The system specs are...

Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E6400 (2MB L2 Cache,2.13GHz,1066 FSB)
Memory: 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz - 2 DIMMs
Hard Drive: 250GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache™
Video Card: 256MB nVidia GeForce 7900 GS
Sound Card: Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio

The last question I have is; What is the difference between Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Ultimate.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

Seriously, you jest?

Hell yeah, it will run Vista.

Whether you want Vista rather than XP for gaming is another question you should ask, and which I can't really answer.

Ultimate has a lot of multimedia and business related bells and whistles

Ok thanks a lot. I'm not that good with computers so I just wanted to make sure it ran Vista before I bought the PC. Thanks again.

since i got my pc. that came with vista. every thing is working good. even games. i have did a lot of reading about vista. and found out that a lot of people are having more trouble with upgrading there pc from XP to vista. then people who have bought there new pc with vista already installed.. i did a lot of google reading about it. but other people might find it not that way.

vista on a 450mhz Pentium III
what i find funny is that microsoft says you can run vista on a machine that has an 800mhz processor or better.. I installed vista basic on a 450mhz Pentium III with 768 mb of ram and it actually runs fast belive it or not.
