i've wanted to go back to XP because of vista being unsmooth and sometimes jolty
but i can't since my drivers aren't recognised lol

Surprise 1gb minimum of RAM??
i only have 1.7, will i suffer with windows 7 more than vista?

What specific hardware do you have that does not have xp drivers?
And yes, most likely 7 > vista.

You can always test the RC of 7, which works normal till march 2010.

mow is right, i only had vista for a few weeks.

What I noticed, is that Vista was terrible in the first week or so. Apparently it needs to synchronise everything, and there were a lot of background processes running. Even after 1 week, It just wasn't "Solid" for me personally. I know W7 does the same thing, but its become stable after 1-2 days even with 50+ processes running. (perhaps it was the copy of Vista I had) who knows. For now, I would give W7 a thumbs up once you get used to the way it functions.

i tried windows 7 on an old p3 900 mhz with 1gb of ram and it ran great!

ofc video cards needs at least to be 64mb to works a lil bit with the visuals.

Still people are making out tweak guides to help you improve windows 7 performance on older computers. Ill post some once i reach the best guide
