Hi. Titi. Welcome



Is this your Spec.?

Intel Pentium M 725 (Dothan 1.6GHz Pentium M Processor)

512MB RAM

12.1” WXGA Widesceen

Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 (802.11 b/g) Internal Wireless

40GB Ultra ATA Hard Drive, 4200 RPM

32 WHr 4-cell Lithium-Ion Battery

24x Combo DVD/CD-RW Optical Drive

The overall spec won't give much support. Stick with Windows XP probably wiser.

With that old specs I would have stayed with XP (Or buy a new computer)

Wow that's old. I had the 600M. I wouldn't expect 8 to work well on that. Would probably be a bit slow; and it didn't have dedicated graphics either. So no fancy stuff.

I only bumped to 2gig memory max. Thanks.

It will run in 1 gig (32bit) but your video probably wont support aero. No doubt it will be slow.

Is it possible for me to bring my Dell 700m laptop to the shop and add a video card to it? Thanks.
