Upgrade to W7 or keep XP?

Win 7 is very much better than XP. I did not have a high end video card. I bought one and it still said that it would not support Aero. It supports it just fine. I would think yours would also. You should go ahead and install. Good luck.

Depends on the cards, but the early 6xxx series for nvidia supported them I think? But either way your computer should do fine under Win7, though a little more ram and better gfx wouldn't hurt for games, you should be just fine. Most programs don't utilize multi-core as well as they should, so single core isn't so bad. I just upgraded, the main thing I notice is how fast windows boots but it still angers me on loading times =O

My bro's mini pc has almost same specifications..

amd sempron single core 2.4ghz
2gb ram ddr 667
ati radeon 128mb (don't remember the exact model)
and supports aero decently!

you should consider upgrading your ram to at least 2GB I suggest.

Yeah I was amazing at how much that helped, it only cost me 33 for 1666 (oc)
