Nepali Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 (edited) you might have noticed that, VISTA refused to install on the machine consisting 256 MB RAM.Now you can install Vista on 256 MB RAM machine replacing the file on your DVD or Source.Eg:- X:\vista\sources\winsetup.dllBut it is not recommended to install VISTA on just 256MB RAM. Hope u upgrade ur RAM soonDownload Patched Winsetup.dll Edited February 24, 2007 by Nepali
neo Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 thanx for this trick. It will help to low-RAM users
Nepali Posted February 25, 2007 Author Posted February 25, 2007 yeah neo..definately, it will help those who got 256 or 384 MB of RAM.But, will they satisfied with the performance ?
prx984 Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Hopefully Nuhi adds this to vLite in later versions.
geniusguy256 Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) hi i have a 320MB RAM and 766MHZ old pc, will it still install?? i have a another question! can i run vista ultimate on virtual pc 2007 with 256MB ram installed and windows xp??? please help me!! Edited April 11, 2007 by geniusguy256
cluberti Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 If you patch winsetup and install, it'll install on 320MB of RAM, or 256MB in a VM. It removes the RAM check, although there are features of Vista (like Media Center) I wouldn't suggest running, even on 512MB of RAM.
geniusguy256 Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 can it be run in virtual pc?? or even on my old pc??? give me some help pls!! even on my low processor?? i there any patch or crack that helps to bypass these checks by vista??
cluberti Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 The patch to bypass the check for RAM is winsetup.dll in this thread. And yes, it'll run on Virtual PC, just without any Aero.But it'll run like crap
thegorre Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Hi,I try this this morning, but nothing work ! Windows vista ask me again that there is not enough memoryI put the DLL file in dvdsource\sources\ : nothingThen i mount the install.wim and replace the original one : dvdources\mount\windows\system32\oobe\ : nothingWindows doen't install itselfMayBe did we need to put this dll file into the Boot.wim ?If anyone try this, please share a little simple tuto for others !!PS : i try just an other release shared by a friend, i copy the sources files then when i look in with Vlite : 256 mb wasfixed automatically but when i look in my release, 256 Mb is fixed to default and doen't accept to be fixed in 256 mb at allIt's strange !!Thanks for whom who can help me !!Best regards
thegorre Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Hi eveybody...I've just try another test, i just copy the Boot.wim coming from a little release shared by a friendThis relase can install itself with only 256 mb.So i copy this boot.wim into my original DVD source, then create a new ISO without using VliteI try to boot then no problemo !!!! so it seems to be something into the Boot.wim !I am installing Windows Enterprise now... so i turn back to you if i got some more infoCiao
thegorre Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Hi,When the first step of installation ended (uncompress image, etc...) The installation gives me this errorwindows could not set the offline local information error 0x800000001So there is a problem...
amocanu Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 why would you want to install Vista in 256 Mb of RAM? not even 512 is enough for it
gosh Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Even better than hexing files is a command switch to bypass the hardware restrictions:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=99602setup.exe /nosyscheck-gosh
tap52384 Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 vLite can also remove the hardware installation requirements, if I am not mistaken.
ridebmx anthony Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 hey i run vista ultimate x86 on 512mb ram it runs amazing maybe u should experience it before your judge it!
