I'm looking to upgrade all of the PCs in my house with Windows 7, especially since the IT place I work at is all Windows 7, no matter how old the machines are, I was hoping it might work for mine too. Ok here's the readout of what we have:
Dell Dimension E410
2.8ghz Pentium 4 HT, 2GB RAM, Intel 910GL 128mb, 160GB HDD
Dell Latitude D410
2.13ghz Pentium M, 2GB RAM, Intel GMA 915 128Mb, 80GB HDD
Dell Inspiron 5100
2.4ghz Pentium 4, 1GB RAM, 16mb ATI Radeon 7500, 80GB HDD
So far, I have tried booting the Inspiron off the Windows 7 disc, and it won't even recognize the DVD for some reason, so I guess that's out of the question. Mine doesn;t support USB devices either, even though the BIOS says otherwise . But I know Windows 7 has built in drivers some i'm hoping the desktop won't have an issue, but the laptop, i'm not so sure of, even though we don't have any issues at work with them. Any opinions? Thanks
