What is the minimum memory requirement for Windows Vista?

  1. 512MB

  2. 1GB

  3. 2GB

  4. 256MB

The correct answer is: 512MB

Windows Vista requires a minimum of 512MB of memory to run smoothly. Option B, 1GB, is a common misconception that many people believe is the minimum requirement. Option C, 2GB, is actually the recommended amount for optimal performance, but it is not the minimum. Option D, 256MB, is much lower than the actual minimum requirement, which could result in slow and unstable performance. Therefore, option A, 512MB, is the correct answer.
