After updated to SP1, i though we can fully make used of our 4GB of RAM already.
But ...


So, do I actually need 64bits version of Vista so that I can fully utilize those RAMs?

P/s: Sorry if the question already answered before.

the question is already answered before. and yes, you'll need 64-bit proc to utilize the full 4gb RAM or use the /PAE switch on 32-bit Vista (wikipedia.org for more info)...

nah, even with /PAE it's not fully used

i already used windows vista ultimate x64 it working very well with 32 bit software. But i found latest driver graphic 64 bit for nvidia have problem when playing hellgate london...lol

before this using 32bit ultimate but can detect only 3.3 Gig ram after change to 64 bit it detect 4 gig

microsoft purposely make the control panel to display 4gb (even though it is not utilize) coz too many ppl asking why 32bit cant detect 4gb

those who are using win vista ultimate with no service pack updates. Plz careful with ise32.exe . It affects my sis lappy so seriously...

Lesson of the date, update ur av regularly and scan the thumb drive b4 access it properly.

can i ask 1 noob question?
vista basic can upgrade to ultimate?
need to buy or just upgrade only? TT

need to buy la sayang
the free upgrade/update is vista to vista sp1

expensive la buy...
wat is the different vista and vista sp1?
in mininova got free genuine upgrade to ultimate... don noe can use o not but i c the comment most of them say is perfect...

i'm afraid illegal stuff is not for discussion in this forum. U might get warn later.

well.. u can report if you one too...
is not a discussion at all...
i noe u r pro at computing stuff not like me where i no nothing so i ask..
if tat is wrong den i'm sry to ya'al..

i think i read bout 1 thread link me to mininova but seems like nobody do anything bout tat... forget wat topic edi... and that is why i ask...

Hi, I'm looking for a new laptop. I'm just going to use it for college use but I also like to edit pictures and movies... I've just checked out dell.com and I wanna know what you guys think about this laptop specifications... Will it runs Vista smoothly? Please let me know what you think... thanks in advance

CPU change to Core 2 Duo, preferably T8000 or T9000 family... the higher FSB of 800MHz, SSE4.1 instruction sets and bigger L2 cache will help in ur editing works...

RAM to 3GB or 4GB... ur work will require quite a lot of RAM... but minimum 2GB... or else running Vista will be sluggish as well...

Vista Home Basic is fine if u dun need Aero and Media Center

GMA X3100 is fine if u re not playing games...

HDD, depends on ur preference, but i believe photos and movies are pretty big...?

Actually using 1GB of RAM is quite good already for Vista, but 2GB is better for RAM Caching. And my laptop is just a Dual Core (not Core2Duo) 1.6Ghz with 1GB of RAM, and Intel 965GM graphics. And I run Vista ultimate on that without any lag or slowness

depends on the work that u do...

for Dry Pillow, i recommend him to get Core 2 Duo and 2GB RAM min becuz of his work...

new photo/video editing softwares now take advantage of SSE4.1 to help speed up, an example is Photoshop CS3. and the instruction sets can only be found in the newer Penryn DC CPU, which are the T8000, T9000, P8000 and P9000 families...

and as far as i know, such softwares are always RAM eater, and with Vista itself also being quite a RAM hungry OS, 2GB is, imo, necessary for him...

Just curious can vista 64 bit run on my 32 bit linksys wifi adaptor driver, becos linksys site doesnt have any wifi adaptor driver for 64 bit.
