Allocate all 512Mb to the virtual machine, yeah your real system is pretty much

crippled whilst Vista is installing but, once its installed, shut it down, double click

the RAM, turn it down to 224Mb (NO LESS) and power back on, this is the great

Vista SCAM!

The scam being that it refuses to install on anything under 512Mb RAM but

runs quite happily (just as smooth as 512Mb) on only 224Mb of RAM, proving

that Microsoft are making us buy hardware we do not need.

So surely they will change it before its released to having 224Mb of ram as the minumum requirement? If they dont they will lose out on a heck o a lot o customers. Losing more than they make from the hardware?

Tried with both Vista Beta 2 and build 5472.5 for 3 newly formatted NTFS hard disks.

I am really not sure what's wrong.
