    How can you speed up your computer using virtual, i have a really old computer so i dont know how to and is it possible to use readyboost on XP because my computer isnt compatible with vista. Even if you know how i can use vista on my computer let me know.

    Pentium 3 450mhz
    256mb Ram
    27gb hdd


    Thank You
    Mehul

    don't even bother with vista on that machine as doesn't even get close to system requirements.

    you're not going to get much out of a 450mhz pIII. best thing would be to swap out the 450mhz for something higher, if possible. you'll have to go to a used computer shop, or a pick and pull shop to find a pIII.

    also, increasing the ram to the max (most likely 512) would help out the system.

    there is no readyboost (as far as i know) in xp. it was designed in the vista OS.
