All you have to do is get a Vista operating system disk and install it. But surely you will have problems, especially on drivers ! it's very hard to get drivers for Vista after upgrading. Also, Vista may not run smoothly on your PC and might become laggy or even crash later on.

Suggestion: get a PC with higher specs, especially the CPU. P3 won't give you satisfaction in it's performance.How to change the OS of my com from pentium 3 to vista?
Oh, oh, you are messed up. Pentium 3 is a CPU model by Intel. To upgrade from XP to Vista, you need a powerful computer and a desired version of Vista on an original DVD, available in a nearby store.



Download a copy of Windows Vista Upgrade Adviser from Microsoft, and run it to see if your computer is capable of Vista.



Now, before buying the DVD, be sure that your specs are higher than the requirements. Pop in the disc and I hope it must tell you what to do.



With a P3 processor, I am doubtful...
The first thing is that pentium 3 is not an OS, its the name of the cpu. The second thing is that VISTA WON'T RUN ON PENTIUM 3. IT NEEDS REALLY HIGH CONFIGURATION. Look into wikipedia article ';Windows Vista'; for more details on vista and the system requirements.
In Compatibility Chart of Vista; minimum system requirement is not matching with any P3 system;

But If you are really interested to experiment with your PC, you can do this; Upgrade your RAM to 512MB(Only is your Processor capacity = 1.7GHz),
vista won't run on a PIII



that would be like trying to get an elephant to run in a greyhound race.
Vista would have a really hard time running on that machine. Try a good distro of Linux like LinuxMint or PCLinuxOS.
