For Windows Vista Ultimate U need atleast 1 GB of RAM and a graphics card of 128 MB MIN.

Windows Vista Ultimate would run on it but it would slow with no graphics.

You can only run the Vista Basic version with your configuration . Your ram is too low as well as the graphics card memory. In order to run Aero smoothly, you need atleast 2 gb of ram and a 128 mb graphics card. 1 gb of ram is the bare minimum

Ur Computer specifications are such that only Windows Vista Home would work and this is what you may have got when U purchased it because on every branded computer it is written compatible with this window or the other one.
