To all the IT gurus out there.
Is my current hardware suitable for windows 7? I have found these items on my pc:
Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3
System Manufacturer: PACKARD BELL BV
System Model: IMEDIA 2579
System Type: x86- based PC
BIOS: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG
BIOS version/Date: W7301 VP2.303 , 05/12/2006
SMBIOS Version: 2.4
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 CPU 6300 @ 1.86GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 2046MB RAM
Graphics:
Chip Type: Radeon x1650 Series, ATI Technologies
DAC Type: Internal DAC(400Mhz)
Memory: 512MB
Current Display Mode: 1280 by 1024 (32 bit) (60Hz)
Am I correct in assuming that by using a 64 bit version of Win 7, I can upgrade my RAM significantly or does that depend on the age of my PC?
Thanks.
