I've heard there are issues with Vista. I'd suggest upgrading to XP.

2.4 MHz (probably nothing Dual core like), 1 GB Ram AND Window Vista....the OS is probably gonna kill playing and not WoW.

What a strange way of listing your specs^^

We have a technical forum. Use it, and it's stickies to find out if your hardware is up to scratch.

As an FYI, Vista and WoW (or any memory intensive game) on anything less than 1.5 Gig is a lesson in toothpulling. With ram as cheap as it is, just spend the extra $20 to get another gig fitted.

If this is a brand new computer it sucks. Intergrated graphics, Vista with only 1 gig, and the slowest possible one gig of ram at that. Considering how memory speed sensative the Athlons are, it'll run like a rock tied to a bigger rock. Absolutely nowhere fast.

It'll run fine.Is this just deliberately bad and vague advice?

As others have said, that isn't really a suitable machine for running Vista, nevermind WoW on Vista.
