Microsoft Longhorn Minimum System Requirements......

AlphaAddict

There has been a lot of speculation about this and a lot of insane rumors with the minimum RAM ranging from 128Mb - 2048Mb.
Even pc mags have been embarrisingly wrong about this Last month PC Format made a few predictions about Longhorn Beta 1....

Now you yould think they would be able to get this right after all they are a leading PC mag with over 20 K readers but you would be wrong ....

Ya see that ? Now where can i find a 3Ghz P3 :LOL:

I happen to have 2 Longhorn PC s running on that spec my 3718 one even runs avalon and win fs (fetured in the Win FS explained thread the blue ones) on 128mb

Thanks for sharing, I've been looking everywhere to see what the minimum requirements were for Longhorn (now called Vista) but never found precise answers because no one I asked knew.

I guess that will be something that will have to wait until Longhorn (Vista) finally releases.

Use reshacker to view them in winsetup.dll in the sources folder.
The setup however has been completly redone you can boot from the cd and use the mouse etc
If the sys req were going to change they would have allready

When is longhorn due to be released and do you know the price? I would have thought windows would continue with their 64bit program.
