How large will WIN7 be after some ServicePack?

Thank you for the info.

Would also depend if you keep the service pack rollback stuff which allows you to uninstall. That is what takes all the space.

I hope that you have at least 4-6gb of ram installed with no pagefile enabled..

Will 4gb be enouth?

That depends on what programs you are running..For most it should be enough, but if you run into a situation where the memory usage exceeds available ram and you have no pagefile enabled, get ready for a system crash.. do yourself a favor and enable pagefile, thats what its there fore...

Thank you for that.I will enable it under that kind of situation.

I doubt you really need to worry about space for any SP. SP3 or 4 will more than likely be some 5 years from now. By which time we'l all be hankering after Windows 8 leaks!

Yes,I just hate to resize my partition often.

So let me get this right, You want someone to use a crystal ball and look into the future and tell you what the size of windows 7 sp3 is going to be.... no problem ...

Im sorry, the ether is dark, you'll have to guess like the rest of us....
