Did it originally come with Vista?

Posted by dumbtrucker on Mar 24, 2009

Are you doing a fresh install or a restore from the system disks, and the second question is why?

Make sure the laptop meets or exceeds the resources needed to run Vista. For all versions of Vista, at least a 1 ghz processor or higher, and 20 to 25 GB of free space on the hard drive. Memory: 512 for Vista Home basic, 1GB or higher for Vista Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate. The video in the laptop must be 16 mb or higher. You MUST meet the minimum requirements or the install and startup will fail.
