m_bee Report post Posted January 29, 2006 That memory is ok to run EL, you might need to buy a better video card. Any cheap card will work nicely. Make sure that you dont enable the poor_man mode, funky things like the ones you describe can occur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure that you dont enable the poor_man mode, funky things like the ones you describe can occur. Running Windows XP with less than 512 MB RAM is to be asking for trouble. So your friend needs to upgrade his RAM as well as getting a better video card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
