I ran the Vista advisor, everything is okay except my vid card. I plan on ditching this computer once i get my new gaming rig, but im thinking about installing Vista on this so i can have media center to go with my xbox 360. Can i still run vista with a 32mb video card?


(No, im not gonna install vista on my new rig.)
 
you could yes, but will not get the fancy areo/transparent effect with it.
as it run fine on an 8 meg s3 video card that vmware emulates
 
doh! 🙂 ... well thats what i get for going off 2nd hand information... dont have the beta yet.. waiting for the stupid CPP to be released
 
Yeah the MCE interface requires a bit more power.

Good news is you can get cheap video cards that should work fine (I've got a 128MB FX5200 in my MCE box and that works okay for the older builds, havent tested it w/ beta 2 yet)
