I down load a lot of files and my 60GB hard drive is quite adequate as I archive old files on a DVD

windows 95-98 can get away with  32-64mb of ram windows 2000 can do it with 64-128mb  and windows xp needs a minimum 256mb you would need more ram for all operating systems the more you put on the computer and try to run these are not the minimum system req  but a beefed up version

"Gb's" would refer to the size of the hard drive, generally. Most laptops tend to have a 40 or 60 GB hard drive. It's more than likely that you'll never fill a hard drive that big, so if it has 40, don't worry too much. \n\nThe previous commenter was referring to RAM. Most laptops will run perfectly fine with 512MB of RAM, which is less than 1 GB. You'd only need that much if you were doing high-end gaming.

Check your computer's specifications...usually found online someplace if you look up the model number and make.  Sometimes it'll tell you what the maximum memory is for your computer.  It doesn't matter what sizes you put in there to make up the numbers as long as (I'm thinking) it's within your max memory.  I seen some older computers only a max of 128RAM....was time to ditch those badboys.  I'm running 512mb right now...two 256 sticks.  Computer runs great even doing videos while running other programs.

i will have to suggest a 120GB hd drive with a 7200rpm all hd drives take about the same power i know this since i upgrade laptop and do custom PCS for people it might be 2 watts more then hat u have but it is worth it in the long run to get an hd drive that runs 7200rpms i speak from experience trye looking at this like for a hd  drive they have good prices

you can easy calculate from Tera to Giga with multiply by 1024\n\nso 20 TB gives 20*1024 GB which gives 20480 GB

Start.... My Computer.... C: drive.  Look at the far left column, scroll down to the bottom, and it will tell you how many GB are used and how many are free on your computer.\n\nIf yours is nearly full, then you would want one that has more than you already have.\n\n\nI♥♫→mia☼☺†

Well that all depends on how fast you want your connections to be especially to the internet.  If you plan on downloading stuff off the internet using a Wi-Fi connection then i suggestion 768 kb/s

20MB is not really that much. That is probably average for visiting websites and checking emails. Graphics, sounds, etc. on some sites take up more bandwidth, plus the computer itself talks to the ISP's routers/servers every once in a while. You are fine.

Instead of telling us how long it is tell us how many MB it is.\n\nIf it's more than 100MB then there's your answer.\n///

1Gb = 1,024Mb.\n1Mb = 1,024kb.

well if you need it just for the applications that you wrote about any speed over 1GZ would be more than ennough,however you should keep in mind that these programs in their new versions require more and more resources so my advice is to go for at least 1.5 GZ and something like 256 or 512 RAM and at least 10 GB hard drive. I hope i helped you.

practically unlimited.  you can get a terabyte hard drive. (that's the largest that I've seen made so far)

Increasing memory is always good. If you are running XP I would suggest a minimum of at least 512 mb. If you can afford the 1GB go for it.

*****UPDATE: i would set min to 1024MB and Max to 1024MB this is the recommend setting by performance users. 2X the size of your ram. by using the system controlled setting windows has the ability to expand your paging file from 768 to 1024 if necessary. i dont think u will mind losing 256MB of hard drive space to have a static 1024MB or 1GB to avoid the disk thrashing of the page file being expanded and contracted at windows discretion.. so set it 1024 min and 1024 max for best performance.***** depends how much ram and hard disk space u have. there is no benefit to a huge page file. i have 1 gig of ram and set it to  1536MB which is 1.5X my ram. if u have less than a gig i would suggest setting it to 2X the size of your ram. if you have a low amount of ram like 256MB i would just keep the option "system managed size" otherwise i use a custom size to avoid the size being changed. if u have 512MB+ just set a custom size min and max the same value.
