mastertr Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Hmm...I never recieved any emails from Microsoft in Early September, even though I am a member of CPP, and did activate my copy of Vista >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot B. Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Mmm... I wonder if they have removed the stupid 512MB Ram restriction... yay 955KB/s... Can't seem to find Office 2007 B2TR Explain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambroos Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 In Build 5536 i couldn't install because i don't have 512MB Ram... It won't even let me try. It just sais: Windows Vista requires 512MB Ram, and you have only 288MB Ram. Setup will not start. Maybe they've removed the deny and made it a warning...

Well these builds will die on a system with 512 MB RAM anyway. It will be improved for the final build(s), though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt even let my grandmother's, brother's, sister's, third cousin use a system with 288mb of ram. I would chunk it out the window and buy them a new box. people dont deserve to suffer so badly in life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halaster Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Well if you want to buy me a new pc... (Can't upgrade: Motherboard can only handle up to 320MB... No512...) I'm quite desperate :( It reaches a point where if you are going to drop a few hundred dollars on a new OS, you might want to consider upgrading the base system first. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meshuggah Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 200-500k, I want to test this finally. This will hopefully be my first build to properly test out. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexcyn Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I used RC1 for about a week then switched back to XP. Still too much incompatibility, still too much memory usage, and still too many driver problems. The list goes on. Maybe I'm cynical, but to be fair this has been in development for 5 years. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
