Install Windows 7 On A Computer That Does Not Meet The Official Minimum System Requirement
Oct 22, 2012
Just for fun, I want to attempt to install Windows 7 on a computer that does not meet the official minimum system requirements.
Specs of this PC:
Cyrix MII @ ~300 MHz
768 MB (256 x 3) 100 MHz SDRAM (not DDR) ATI Rage 128 AGP graphics card
80 GB SATA HDD (upgraded, with PCI card for the SATA)
I put the specs of most concern in bold. As for the video card, I can upgrade that if need be. What I'm really wondering is... can the Cyrix II even process the instructions for Windows 7 (albeit extremely slowly, of course) or is its instruction set simply too old?

I have a HP Compaq CQ57 notebook that came with windows 7 starter. I installed Win 7 Ultimate but when I try to install the drivers, it say that the computer does not meet the minimum specifications. I think it is something that I have not loaded because it gives this error with every driver, even the wireless network driver

I have a ViewSonic 19" CRT (Professional Series P95f+)
There are drivers for Vista 64, however 7 won't take them and the monitor I have is not listed when I try to choose it from the list. I tried similar models but still the monitor will only do 85hz at the highest even in low resolutions.
This monitor can do 160hz in 800x600, 120hz in 1024x768 and 100hz in 1280x960, 90hz in 1280x1024 I believe.
I tried using a custom driver that I made in Rivatuner but it only works on Windows XP. I tried the latest version of Rivatuner but the button for Create Driver is not clickable no matter how I set it up, and it doesn't correctly detect the monitor (perhaps because I'm using 2 monitors at once, not sure).
Any suggestions on how I can force windows 7 to use higher refresh rates? This monitor looks like absolute crap when it's not at full refresh....especially next to my nice new TRUE 120hz 22" LCD (ViewSonic VX2265WM).

So, I recently installed Windows 7 on my aunt's old PC: Pentium 4 Prescott "A" 2.8GHz, 768 MB RAM, GeForce FX5200. Runs quite well, even with glass on and MSE running in the background.Now, my mom needs her computer reformatted. It's currently running Windows XP, and I wonder if it can make the jump to 7: Celeron 1.2 GHz (I do believe it's a Tualatin, though; if it is, that makes it as good or better than Pentium 4 Willamettes) 512 MB PC133 SDRAM, and some newer nVidia PCI card.Can it manage it? I actually made Windows 7 "usable" on a Duron Mobile 800 MHz with 512 MB RAM and integrated GPU before.

NT Kernel & System rises to top of list in task manager and then just totally stops installs from proceeding. I have fought NT Kernel & System on 3 computers running Win 7 x64 ever since Win 7 has been out. No one yet that I know of has been able to solve the issue. I now need to install Java and can't because of NT Kernel & System stops it. I have tried everything on every forum and sites l find with Google searches. Nothing has worked yet.
