03myersd Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 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 clickthe RAM, turn it down to 224Mb (NO LESS) and power back on, this is the greatVista SCAM!The scam being that it refuses to install on anything under 512Mb RAM butruns quite happily (just as smooth as 512Mb) on only 224Mb of RAM, provingthat 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
