Ive actually had it on two different machines. My new one is state of the art. My old one was 128mb ram and an Athlon 850mgz processor. XP did fine.
I have XP running on a PIII with 384 megs of RAM. It ran fine but I "optimized" it for performance as opposed to "looks" and now it runs <i>great</i>. If you go to System Properties and then the Advanced tab there is a Settings button under Performance. There you can turn off or on all the little "pretties" that come with the OS if you want or need to.
I've got it on an Athlon 750 with 128 Megs of RAM. I don't do much with it -- it's my CD burning computer, but it's run great!
Thats your OLD comp? Hell, thats the specs on my current computer. Well its actually Athlon TBird 800mHz, 384mb Ram, 50 gig HD. BTW, XP works fine on mine.
Well that was on a Sony Viao laptop I bought at Fry's about 1 year ago. But the laptop broke down on me (personal advice to some of you, never buy a Viao laptop .......everything kept breaking on it (PCMCIA ports, NIC port, power port) and Sony no longer has a service center here ...you have to ship the thing to California and wait 10-14 days for it to come back). My new one is a Compaq, PIV 1.9ghz, 768mb Ram, 40gig hd, CD-RW/DVD and XP. I think it has to do with the amount of ram as far as Windows XP goes. The more ram you have, the better XP seems to perform.
