ripken204 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 yes, you should definetly have at least 12gigs, 15gigs would be better tho just in case vista needs the space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sylvianorth Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 That's the beauty of Micro$oft....... making you buy new hardware to support Vista. I have a feeling that many people will be in the same boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that many people will be in the same bloat. Fixed. There probably will be another project similar to nLite... I wonder how slimmed-down Vista can be made.

tarzan007 Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 i agree, its tough to slim down Vista, but not impossible. It never asked me what features i want when i actually started installing. Moreover it cant upgrade my XP as it was FAT32 format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizban2 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 80 gig HD is 40 bucks on Newegg, i know no one likes to spend money but HD space is cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
