| 771213 | 2009-05-05 03:55:00 | The system requirements Win 7: * 1 GHz or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor * 1 GB of RAM (32-bit)/2 GB of RAM (64-bit) * 16 GB of available disk space (32-bit)/20 GB (64-bit) * DirectX 9 graphics device with Windows Display Driver Model 1.0 or higher driver Those who plan to run XP Mode will need at least 2 GB RAM, 15 GB of additional hard drive space and a processor that supports hardware virtualization. For reference, Windows Vistas system requirements are: * 1 GHz processor (32- or 64-bit) * 512 MB of RAM (for Home Basic); 1 GB of RAM for all other versions * 15 GB of available disk space * Support for DirectX 9 graphics and 32 MB of graphics memory (for Home Basic); 128 MB of graphics memory plus WDDM support for all other versions And considering how it ran on 512mb, does that mean 1GB (32bit), 2GB(64bit) will also be a joke with Win 7 Release? |

| 771214 | 2009-05-05 03:57:00 | Win7 with 512 MB is almost managable. It's a mammoth improvement on what Vista was like on 512. 1GB is OK. It's better than Vista with 1GB I'd say, but 1.5GB + is really what you want |

| 771216 | 2009-05-05 04:53:00 | I'd like to try Windows XP mode, but my CPU doesn't support virtualisation. :( Otherwise I'm all sweet. :D |
