PS. I don't the prices for the mobo's you have short listed that's why I gave you teh ASUS...also the ASUS I mentioned above has Nvidia 6150 for onboard graphics.

When you say Vista ready you are talking about being able to get AERO...well for AERO you need a graphics card and keeping in mind your budget the only one I can think of is XFX 7300LE 256MB (supposrting 512mb when u have 1GB sys memory) is around Rs.3000/- but for that you need to strech your budget to Rs.18500 total.
