@hammy6427 it works when you have 1 GB ram or 2 only for noteboocks

@cymru2000 the laptop is aero compatible because it uses ati radeon xpress 200m just use the vista driver for that.

@hammy6427 Thanks for your comment on such an old video, you truly honour me.
The laptop is not aero compatible.
This 2 year old video was posted to show that Win 7 is usable on lower end machines, though maybe not for "transparent stuff", however this is due to it not having a proper graphics card - not because I felt like cheating you.
I'll post a followup video at some point of my current laptop booting with Win7 - it has the transparent stuff.

@hammy6427 The company I work for is a large Microsoft partner, so this was basically an early Beta build ( milestone release). The Beta came out in early 2009, but performed about the same as this on boot. I never got round to testing the later builds because I ,lost the laptop :)

modest?

I think with the amount of time passed since this was originally posted we could downgrade modest to "crappy".
