Lenovo systems that support Microsoft's Windows Vista requirements
A Windows Vista Capable PC that is Premium Ready helps to ensure the best experience possible when transitioning from Microsoft Windows XP to the future of computing using Windows Vista. Many Lenovo systems that support Windows XP today already meet or surpass the minimum requirements to support Windows Vista.
Determine if your Windows XP-based PC is ready for an upgrade to Windows Vista by running the Microsoft Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor Beta. Choose the edition of Windows Vista that is right for you, and find out if your system and devices support the edition and features of Windows Vista that meet your needs.

Windows Vista Capable program:
PCs with the “Windows Vista Capable” logo can run the core experiences of Windows Vista. All Editions of Windows Vista will deliver core experiences such as innovations in organizing and finding information, security, and reliability . All Windows Vista Capable PCs will run these core experiences at a minimum. Some premium features that are available in premium editions of Windows Vista, like the new user experience, Windows® Aero™, may require advanced or additional hardware.

Windows Vista Premium Ready:
To get an even better Windows Vista experience including the Windows Aero user experience, look for PCs that are designated as Premium Ready, or choose a PC that meets or exceeds the Premium Ready requirements. Features available in specific premium editions of Windows Vista, such as the ability to watch and record live TV, may also require additional hardware. |
Windows Vista System requirements tools and detailed information is also available on Microsoft’s web site at www.windowsvista.com/getready
NOTE: Users who have installed or will install “Beta” versions of Windows Vista may find that some system functions are not fully supported. Lenovo is now developing Windows Vista device drivers for our ThinkPad® notebooks, ThinkCentre® desktops and Lenovo 3000 family of offerings. These drivers are expected to be available on our Support for Windows Vista Express Upgrade Web page in late November 2006.
To ensure your system meets these requirements, refer to the following charts:
