Windows Vista premium will use of all of a Gig and will be too slow. I suggest you upgrade to 2 gigs for optimal performance. My brother had 512 but he doesn't have the premium and it was still slow. He upgraded to a gig and it's much better now. But, like I said, he doesn't have the premium. To summarize, 1 gig for windows vista basic and 2 gigs for the premium. The upgrade isn't that expensive depending on where you live. If memory serves me well one extra gig should not be more than $75 - $100.
I would prefer XP over Vista anyday of the week.

Yep i have 998 of ram on my other computer and it works perfectly fine. You should download the Windows Vista Advisor to see if your computer meets other requirements for Windows Vista Home Premium. Hope this helps.

Sure will! Microsoft says that Vista will run acceptably with 512MB of RAM, but that's a low-ball figure. My personal recommendation is to go with 1GB of RAM or more. Understand that Vista, like all Windows versions, is a RAM hog: It will utilize whatever you throw at it, to the physical limits of the system. Those limits are 4GB for 32-bit systems and 128GB for x64.

I would highly recommend you go with 2 megabytes of ram if you can do that. Vista requires more memory then it's XP counterpart.

It should run, but why do you want Vista?
