How to grasp Vista on a XP desktop?

i wouldn't do it because i ponder your comp will become slow. remember vista uses a lot of memory and have compatibility problems.
Well, if Windows Vista is the same installing process as XP, you'll know how to install it without have need of of partitioning your HD. That way, if it turns out that Vista doesn't run smoothly on your PC, you can simply revert to XP.



The key catch for Vista users is that it requires 1GB of RAM to even start up and run, but because you hold 2 GB, you should be fine on that part.



Finally, you call for to remember that for gaming, Vista eats up 1GB of RAM (512mb for rough Vista) and the memory that REMAINS is what is left for gaming. So if you hold 2GB RAM and Vista Premium, you won't be able to play a team game that requires 2GB, you'll have to upgrade to 3 or 4GB.
