im also using win7 x86 b7057 on my very old athlon xp 1700+, altho it does have 1gb of ram. Managed to get it to 2700+ tho without blue screens in win7 as well :) only thing that changed was CPU score from 2.8 to 3.5 anyway here are scores for it:
IT'S AN........
EEE PC!!!!
That's sweet! I wonder how it runs!

I didnt know Windows 7 existed on 2002 LOLLOL. look at the date on his screenshot :P
heres my old machine ;D I blame my nvidia geforce2 mx/mx 400 for my 1.0 WEI Score
but aleast I can still run windows 7 ;D (Note: processor has been overclocked
nice........
i think im gonna drag out my P3 533mhz system with XP & see if it likes the taste of W7.... that's got 512mb also.....
:)SK
That screenshot shows 2002, because there is something wrong with the CMOS battery on the motherboard, and the BIOS resets to defaults whenever the machine is powered down.
It never really bothered me, seeing as the machine is my "secure station" that I use to scan peoples hard disks for viruses, so I never really bothered to fix the issue...
I'm still as curious as ever to see "how low can it go" in terms of what's the lowest spec hardware Windows 7 will run on...
How did you get that athlon xp 1800 to 2.4ghz!!?? thats faster than the 3200 at stock?"screenable is not usable"
I am still looking for a way to try an install of seven on a really old laptop I have (P3-650 - 192Mo), but without DVD player and no USB boot ...
Curious to see how it can work on it(XP itself is really slow because of the ram amount and the odl HDD)
By the way the first time I've tried Vista that was on a AthlonXP 1800+ @ 2.4Ghz with 512Mo. Working fine.. not great but fine.
I've found that under 1.9Ghz for the CPU it became unsuable.
Some series of the XP 1800+ where "king of overclocking".
This was the 0.13µ one (instead of the first which was in 0.18µ) ... series like JIUHB can go over 2.5Ghz with some motherboard tweak.
I used a Abit NF7-S rev2.0 for that. With a Vmod some put this couple over 2.6Ghz.
Mine was rock stable for 3 or 4 years(but I have to say that my PC is fully watercooled since I bought this CPU for o/c.)
For the perf side, my Athlon @ 2.4Ghz run faster than a P4 3.0Ghz with HT.
For the history: XP1800+ and NF7-S still run on my linux file server today. No overclocking here... but a "big undercloking with a "little" 1Ghz (5x200Mhz) for energy safe.
That really should work fine on Vista I'd think even at 1.9 GHz. I know my grandmother's Sempron 3400+ only runs at 2.0 GHz and is plenty fast with Vista."screenable is not usable"

You can't compare AthlonXP @ 1.9Ghz and Sempron (Athlon64) @ 2.0Ghz
The frequency is not the only thing the have influence on the global perf.
I said that for the AthlonXP, under 1.9Ghz, Vista becam hard to use, something like the index process take to much ressource, etc.
You can have an Intel Core 2 duo running pretty well with Vista at less than 1.5Ghz.
When I change my XP1800+ that was for an Intel E4300, which run @ 1.8Ghz (stock).. and with EIST and Speedstep it's 1.2Ghz in idle time. But it was like day and night compare to the XP1800+ even o/c @ 2.4Ghz
