its not hard to make your system meet those requirements.
Buy a larger HD, or delete files and programs off your current HD to free up space, or beeter yet, buy an external HD, and dunp all your files on that, then reformat current HD.
get more RAM, (come on, RAM is cheap, AND easy to install)
if your CPU is not at least 800HMz, then that thing is a dinosuar, buy a new one.
you dont HAVE to have 128MB video RAM, thats just the requirements to run the new "Aero" 3D, and transparency effects.
or better even yet, buy yourself a cheap dell, and upgrade the RAM every dell desktop now come witha base 80GB HD. the dimension E310 has 512MB RAM, 80GB HD, P4 w/ HT and meets the requirements for just $449.00
