For example, on my dualcore Core i3 notebook with 3 Gb of RAM, Windows Vista works more better than Windows XP, because Vista eat less battery power than XP and boot quite faster
I did'n installed Windows 7, because i hate in this OS a fucking ribbon interface in default programs like a Paint, Wordpad and because of Superbar (i really like a classic quick launch bar).
But on older PC's with less than 1 GB of RAM the best OS is a Windows XP SP3.
@AlexMagic777 Well it is the slowest OS.. And it boots slower than Windows XP.. Now if you have a low spec computer with Windows XP and a maxed out computer with Windows Vista, then yes, Windows Vista will probably load up and such faster because it has a lot more resources. And you can make Windows 7 look like Windows Vista.
interesting feedback. I had a try and many questions.
I seems definitely slower than XP
I am considering upgrading to 512 mo ram to get faster browsing and file exploring. But videos (divx 640x480) shoud stay slow due to a slow 850 mhs cpu.
I have some others questions about hard disk and drivers attached to my vodeo test.
Why is it when I install windows seven on similar specs, the OS Install does NOT auto install some of my hardware such as my graphics card, but where as in, when installing windows xp from the disc (on the same computer) it atleasts installs my hardware - Networking card, graphics card, etc.. Because windows seven does not install the networking card, I am unable to hook up to the internet to install my other hardware *that i do not have discs for*
My uncle has this laptop and he's going to give it to me once he's done copying important files on it. And how did you get Windows 7 to run on it? Doesn't Windows 7 require a 1 GHz processor in order to run on the system?
all computer will have it high lights. Eventually I7 and eight core will be a thing of the past someday. 850 mhz processot it will fast if you remove all programs. Defragment it and you all good to go.
isn't that windows 7 require processor with at least sse2 instruction set? i knew vista worked because it did not require sse2 instruction but how come windows 7?
@jdcrispe95 It can go up to 2000 something but i tried it but messed up my monitor saying it can only support 1600 x something so i boot in safe mode restored it and put it into 1600 and works :P
@WackoX1337 it is not at stores it is for software devolpers to test them if you want to download it you only have 90 days before it expires here's the link REMOVE THE() and spaces in front and back of the dot
@WackoX1337 It's like Windows 7 Ultimate with 5 years of extra support, it costs a little less, and is a lot more stable.
So, don't get Ultimate. Get Enterprise: it also runs more efficiently on older computers because many businesses don't have the newest computers (usually coming from Windows NT4, 2000, or XP).
@WackoX1337 Wow smart guy... It's called for large corporations only. They have VLK agreements with Microsoft. And for those of you who don't represent a corp. it's called getting it another way... *cough* like I did *cough*
This isn't good no wonder you don't have aero I do cause my laptob has 4 GB memory you should not of installed it because XP is better then windows 7 when you have low ram
Sorry, "TVsparkproduction", but you need a 64 bit processor and operating system to recognize that much memory. Many computers don't play nice with Aero. Even our nice 2.8Ghz Radeon 9200 desktop doesn't, but its not really a bad thing.
How did you get internet working? I have same laptop as shown in video and I installed windows 7 on it but no matter how hard i try I can't get internet. Any Ideas?
@littlet533 When you installed windows 7 did you have XP or Vista and did you do a custom installation or Upgrade Upgrade keeps all your files internet setting and you get connexion, custom deletes everything and you have to do a windows easy transfer and yeah...
Old? That's anything but old, LOL! You crack me up. The only thing to suggest even remote aging was taking out the RAM to make it look like 512. Put your other 512 chunk back in, and you'll have a high class top of the line computer with Windows 7 in No time at all.
don't do it..........you can't play all the games you wan't.......you will not have AERO........you need 1 gb ram to get aero...........plz listen........if you have windows 7 boot back to the old os.........operative system....
Tpavra You can run any Windows OP but my question is How fast a windows 7 runs on a pentium 3 can u open 2 o3 3 heavy programs like autocad,microsoft office and
watching dvd Movie of Course Not i highly Recomend you to put Windows xp 7 Style
is Windows xp but it look very Similar to windows 7 and Runs very Fast .
thx for the video dude i m thinking of installing windows 7 in my intel pentium 4 2.00 ghz 1 gb(soon 2gb)ram laptop with ati mobilty radeon 9700.Now i m pretty sure i will have no problem!
Yeah, it should run perfectly fine, just make sure you get the drivers for it before installing. (if windows doesn't automatically install everything.)
