grabben Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Even if its possible it cant possibly run smoothly at all..not even laggy..I suggest you use another OS for that computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 As long as it is possible to run XP with 8 MHz & 20 MB:http://www.winhistory.de/more/386/xpmini_eng.htmwhy wouldn't 7 run with 128?Original MS requirements (the ones that you have to at least DOUBLE to have a responsive system ):http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sysreqs/pro.mspxXP:300 Mhz & 128Mb RAMhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/system-requirements.aspx7:1 Ghz & 1 Gb RAMNow:20/128=÷1/6128/1024=÷1/8So, theoretically it shouldn't be possible, right?NO, wrong: AFAIK we are "stuck" at 96 Mb:http://www.geek.com/articles/chips/windows-7-runs-on-a-pentium-ii-with-96mb-ram-20090622/Or maybe at 64 :http://forum.thewindowsclub.com/136774-post37.htmlThe next question is "Is it smart?" (and everyone can answer this one )jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
