Re: Running Windows 7 with older hardware

I'm not sure why you would "need" 4Gb of ram for Win7. But Asus posts a memory list for each of their boards, showing the make/model and verified working configurations. (such as 2x1Gb, 4x512Mb, etc)

The reason I'm wanting to put 4 gigs is Windows 7 has the ability to pre-cache most used programs in any unused memory. The system itself may only use 2 gigs, but the other 2 gigs can be used for program loading.
