On a Dell Dimension 4300 with Win Me pre-installed and an XP upgrade install on
a 2nd HDD:

When Windows Vista comes around for purchase somehow....

How to delete Win Me and install Win Vista in its place?

A 128 MB videocard should be purchased in anticipation of this installation
before they aren't sold anymore because all videocards are going to PCIExpress.
The Dell only has a 32 MB videocard right now.

If you're asking a question then post it as a new post not as a add on
to someone else's. Also this isn't the place for vista questions. It's
still in beta 1. If you're a beta tester you have access to the beta
newsgroups.
