[Rich-M]

You can definitely put Vista on this, but could you tell us why you want to?

[xspawn2]

i just like vista for somereason.. i just wanna know if rent-a-center would care if they didnt even know...

[Rich-M]

That's OK I think Vista is great but there are some issues here and there like with anything new.

[xspawn2]

Why would that be?

[xspawn2]

the thing that i downloaded from windows vista website said i can only run Windows Home Basic... it said Ultimate takes 1GB of ram home basic 512 RAM i got 512

[Rich-M]

You won't be happy with Home basic, it is missing Aero and the other neat features of the other versions and Vista does not run well in any version with 512 ram.

[xspawn2]

is there something i can download for alot of Features of vista Such as Looks..?
i dont want home basic if it isnt that good..
