[ashishkamat]

hie buddies
well i have sd ram 256mb and i loaded windows xp..and combo drive
well i have 20mb free will it effect my computer operations.will it slow my pc

dont worry peopl run it with as low as 128

[indranilmaulik]

XP Pro will give a better performance with 512 MB

[NikhilVerma]

Windows XP could even work with 64MB RAM...

[indranilmaulik]

As you have 256 mb my suggestion will be to use win 2000 sp4

[sr_ultimate]

Yaar! I got Xp 128 RAM !! Works fine

hi Ashish,
You Didn't Mention That The where u have the free space.
20mb IS your HardDisk Space Available or in Th ePartition This Much of Space Is Available.
if This is Your hardDisk Space Is Available, Then U Have To Free Up Some Of The Space because OS required Some Of The Space To Run Smoothly. Free Up Some Space From The Hard Disk Partition IN Which u HAve Installed your XP PRO to Aloow OS To Run Smoothly

[ice]

Just close the useless applications that aren't being used, And if ur in dire need of ram,

u could
1. Defrag it, using system mechanic
2. get more ram

hello this is about RAM

xp hits a "sweet spot" with 512MB any thing less causes a lot of pagging to the HDD causing fall in performance and wear out of the HDD

[geo_cyril@yahoo.com]

what crap!!

i run xp with 64 mb.
it takes a lot of time to start... i admit
but after that its smooth

make sure u have atleast 100 MB free space on ur xp partition.

[ashishkamat]

Is there any way increasing onboard graphics video RAM by changing BIOS setting

Any one know plss help

[pradeep_chauhan]

yes it is possible to increase Vidio RAM from BIOS but the same ammount is reduced from your system RAM. This only happens in onboard vidio cards . No one can give you the exact steps as we do not know your BIOS so open BIOS (press del on startup) go to advance tab there search for vidio ram and set it accordingly.

[imgame]

it even runs with 64MB as geo said ! i have a friends who runs xp with 64 MB !

[[flAsh]]

yupp Xp doen't giv tons of troubles like win 98 even if u hav 64Mb RAM.
128Mb RAM runs windows XP nicely.256 will run it superbly even if u hav onbaord graphix.

[Sourabh]

i have win xp running smoothlyon my p2 400mhz & 98 mb sdram@ 100 mhz
n btw it even doesnt take much time for loasing Xp on this system too
also remember the basics:
TURN OFF SYSTEM RESTORE, remove eerything from startup, and ofcourse dun use a a/v ,TURN OFF AUTOMATIC UPDATING, TURN OFF REMOTE TASKING and simple things to make ur xp run well on low sys without glitches

[techno_funky]

dont worry using winxp pro for 2 years on a 256 mb sd ram
dint find any problems with it
and that too all the bells and whistles on

[rohanbee]

Gwad u guys don't say
I felt xp slow at 256 so i upgraded to 512 400mhz that too..........
................something must be wrong with me then :roll:
