Hi Ashwin:

The hardware requirements for Windows Vista are pretty clearly defined on this page:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/capable.mspx

You should note that the OS will scale the user experience (i.e., UI) according to the capabilities of the particular system; in other words, Aero may be disabled if the system does not have enough video memory or processing power to support it. In this case, the Aero option would not appear in the drop-down found at Control Panel | Personalization | Appearance.

Hope this helps.
