Vista Question

gizmosmustang · March 3rd, 2008

I have ran the upgrade advisor on my current rig and it tells me that vista basic is the best for me but I would rather have premium or ultimate is my current rig (see sig) capable of running either?

your system should be able to run a higher version of vista. the only weaknesses i see in your system is the video card and the power supply.

Then again, the computer in his sig can run Vista Premium without a problem.

Yep, I ran Vista Premium just fine on something even less powerful so you're all set. Stay away from Ultimate, it's a waste of cash.
