Aloha Brenda, I would make sure of the following: 1. get a graphics card with at least 256 mb ram 2. get a sound card 3. buy the computer at a store like Costco, which gives you 3 months to be totally satisfied with your purchase, or return it for your money back, and try again. Good luck, Manny checkout my stand-up comedy performance & if you enjoy it, please forward & post on your social network--my goal is to reach a million clicks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75fbevlz10g

I'm looking at an HP Pavilion slim line. I never get the numbers right but it is like 4 g ram, 3.4 processer speed. Is there anything I should avoid or make sure I have? Other than immediately updating the video driver (or do I really have to do this) is there anything I should do. I know my Dell Vista machine had some kind of bar at the top and a gadget bar that needed to be removed. I'll be running W-E 7.5. Any tips or an article reference would be appreciated.
