noroom Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 What is the minimum hardware requirement to run longhorn so that is not slow? Longhorn 4051 System Requirements300 MHz PII Processor or higher 256MB of RAM is STRONGLY recommended At least 3.5 GB HDD Space I once installed XP on a computer with those specs, and it ran really slow. Tyler Durden said 1.2 GHz are not enough, and i was planning on installing it on my computer. Do you think it would run fast enough? P3, 1.1 GHz 320 MB RAM 40 GB IDE HD how big is the download file anyway? :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MulletRobZ Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 IE 6.05 crashed only once so far and it's been running really slow on my PC. Then again, the minimum requirements is 600 MHz and I only got a 500 OC'd to 548 MHz! As for hard drive space, it is confirmed that installation will take up 2.9 GB. A full review will be written soon. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilman2590 Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Its stable but, PIRATER BEWARE IF YOU INTALL LONGHORN 4051 YOU MUST REFORMAT TO GET THE INTERNET BACK! No you don't... thats stupid.

insurektion Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 so it blocks internet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrosive23 Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Its stable but, PIRATER BEWARE IF YOU INTALL LONGHORN 4051 YOU MUST REFORMAT TO GET THE INTERNET BACK! Stop trying to spread bull**** rumors. I dual boot it and internet works fine for both if a little slow in longhorn, why not actually try something before making sweeping bull**** lies about it, and your sig is too damn big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris123NT Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Those specs are an absolute minimum. I used to list it as 600 MHz but people bitched that that was too high lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoge3k Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 It dosen't block the internet. It has a damaged TCP/IP stack, and if you set a static ip, it fails. It's been running fine as my pri-os for about a week now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmeiro Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 it's a lot more stable than the previous leaks, though not perfectly. Even if it were though, i still wouldn't start using it until theres driver support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Still holding stable and now with the EXPLORER.EXE memory leak fixed, LH 4051 runs at a decent speed on my PC, that is without the sidebar and with all the graphical effects. The only thing that is slow is my ADSL connection, operating at 1/4 - 1/3 the normal speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcdShdw Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 everything in it is fine to me execpt that explorer is a memory hog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxdesmus Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 LH doesn't like winamp5 beta2 ...as least for me. caused explorer to fly up to around 150 MB of ram. lol. i've tried installing and uninstalling it 3 separate times now...maybe it's just my setup. just to let everyone know... ;) ;) otherwise, this baby is running damn fast and stable here for about a week now. :woot: ...beta1 here we come :woot: ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
