bobothebionicmonkey Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hey guys I ordered a computer a few days ago from Gaming PC maker Vigor. Well the operating system I chose was Microsoft windows media center edition and it said they would give me a free upgrade to Vista home premium. I figured why the heck not, vista is supposed to be cool. But since a lot of sites keep having those "are you ready for vista" banners I was just wondering if the new computer is even up to the standards of vista Here are the specs i can remember:Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6400 at 2.13GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 2M CacheCool BlastTM Air Vent with Dual 90MM and 80MM (Top) Case FanStandard AMD/Intel Certified 600 Watt Power SupplyAsus P5N-SLI nVidia nForce 570 SLI MCP w/1066MHz FSB2GB Corsair PC2-5300 DDR2 667MHz Memory (2 X 1024MB) 320GB S-ATA II 7200 RPM Hard DrivenVidia GeForce 7950 GT 512MB XXX @600MHz, DVI and TV Out Internal 16X Dual Layer DVD+/- RW + 24X CDRW Rewritable DriveInternal DVD+CD Rewritable Combo Drive 16X52X32X52Digital High Definition 3D 7.1 8-Channel SoundOnboard Gigabit (10/100/1000Mbps) PCI Network Card1 Parallel, 1 Game/Midi, 1 IEEE 1394 Firewire and 10 USBportsLG L1952TX 19QuoteMark 1280X1024 1400:1 8ms LCD MonitorLogitech X230 2.1 3-Channel Speakers w/Subwoofer Standard Black Internet Multimedia KeyboardStandard Black Optical Wheel Mouse1.44MB 3.5QuoteMark Floppy Drive Plus 8-in-1 Card Reader Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) 2005So Is my new computer vista compatable?

jason.b.c Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 My god ..! , How much did you spend on that thing and where'd you get the money for it..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobothebionicmonkey Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I spent less than my sister spent on her computer from Alienware. I have the technical know-how of a rock so I couldn't build a computer like most people do. So i had to go with the more expensive route buying customized. I used up almost all the money I had saved up for it (That took awhile) It cost about $1900 from "Vigor" computers and they were the cheapest for that configuration. Well thanks for the help, I had know idea whether it was good for vista. (another testament to my lack of knowledge about computers :D ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 You can run the Vista Upgrade Advisor to check your system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
