    This computer good ?

    So my budget isnt very high
    I am preferably looking to play Warhammer Online !


    # Windows Vista Ready
    # Intel Pentium D 5.6Ghz (2.8Ghzx2) Dual Core CPU
    # 512MB nVidia 9600GT PCI Express
    # Standard Heatsink & CPU Fan
    # 4GB (4 x 1GB) Kingston 667Mhz DDR2 Ram
    # 160GB SATA Hard Drive
    # 22x Dual Layer DVD +/- Rewriter
    # Integrated Graphics Card
    # Integrated 5.1 Channel Audio
    # 2 Front and 4 Back USB Ports
    # Onboard 10/100 Ethernet - Broadband Ready
    # Standard 450W PSU
    # 1 Year Return To Base Warranty


    So heres some noob questions

    With it saying Vista Ready, does it come with Vista installed ?
    Can i run Warhammer online ?
    If i borrow my mates Windows XP operating system disc, can i install XP on this computer at no cost ?

    Sorry for the newb questions!

    Vista ready menas it can handle vista. You can run warhammer online and you could install your mates XP but thats illegal. Your much better off getting Vista x64 bit.

    I had your processor before i upgraded and i ran vista x64 fine. Have your graphics card now but overclocked and i can play most games on high settings.
    If you need me you have my skype, if you don't have my skype then you don't need me.
