Packet Tracer on a windows 2 in 1 tablet & laptop with celeron cpu.

[tarug199]

Hi All,

Till now I was using packet tracer in a windows laptop with intel i3 cpu. However my laptop is bulky and to increase portability I've decided to purchase a windows 2 in 1 tablet & laptop and that contains an intel celeron cpu. Can anybody confirm If I can use packet tracer on a celeron cpu with 4 GB of ram ?

Yes, it shouldn't be a problem; Celeron cpu is not the best but it works.  You may have issues when you have many other application open along with PT.   I am still using PT on Windows 7 64 bit but 32-bit worked OK as well (officially PT not supported for Win 7 but still works fine).  I even used PT on tablet in the past. Note: You can install 32-bit PT on Win 64 bit version,
