HP Compaq Presario C749TU Notebook PC – Windows Vista Performance

Everybody will be wondering… Can HP Compaq Presario C749TU Notebook PC run Windows Vista? Can it run with Intel Celeron 540 1.86GHz, 512MB RAM, 80GB HDD? I am using Windows Vista Home Premium to do the test. In short, Windows Vista cannot run on this system with 512MB RAM or less. 1GB RAM and above is highly recommended. Windows Vista uses up around 600MB RAM after boot up. Some memory was used as Video memory. It uses up to 800 RAM when play movie with Media Player. It does eat a lot of memory in Windows Vista.

Processing power is another factor we have to look into. Intel Celeron 540 1.86GHz which is single core processor will not run smoothly in Windows Vista on some applications. Dual core and higher frequency CPU is highly recommended. However, it still can run most of the office application, entertainment and web browsing. No 3D gaming with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator x3100. It is way too slow to run any popular 3D games. A dedicated powerful 3D card is required. πŸ˜›

Download Free TCPMP ~ The Core Pocket Media Player for Windows Mobile

I have an old Pocket PC which is using Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition for Pocket PC – Professional. It uses 203 MHz Samsung S3C2410 processor. 25 MB user available memory is all that I have. Therefore, it is a little hard for me to play media files with this Pocket PC. However, The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP) saves the day. It does not require high end hardware resources to play media files like DivX video files.

TCPMP is an open source application but discontinued. It is known as BetaPlayer previously. The latest version is CorePlayer Mobile and Pro v1.3 from CoreCodec Universe. But you need to purchase it. Not longer a free product.
