Windows Vista is the unprecendented Windows OS release that requires a dedicated graphic card to exploit its full potential. For home users, there will be three versions: Vista Home Basic, Vista Home Premium and Vista Home Ultimate. With such high specifications, Microsoft really wants users to consider to upgrade their computers.
If you really interested in using Windows Vista, you must first check your computer capability to handle the enourmous needs of Vista. You can check your computer’s compatibility by visiting the following url.
1. Visit Are you Vista ready?
2. Read through the license agreement and press agree at the bottom of that page. Shortly after that, a popup will appear and select the can you run it?
3. If the active-x is off, you need to turn that on. Supposed you don’t have Java runtime environment installed in your computer, you need to install it and it will take a few minutes to complete.
4. After that, you are required to install a small software (adware,spyware free and it does not collect any info from your computer), to check your computer’s compatiblity.
Here’s the test result of my computer. I need to upgrade the processor and the graphic card (thinking of having new computer). So, how’s your computer perform in the test? Are they Vista ready?
