Windows XP on an older system.

[MadModder]

I have an old 1.8ghz Duron system w/ 512 mbs of PC2100 memory. Could this system run XP home in a stable, non 15 hour loading time environment? Otherwise where can I get a copy of windows 98?

I'm sorry but this is a dumb question -.- Did you even bother to check google to see what the requirements were?

Could this system run XP home in a stable......

Yes.

Don't expect it to be a screamer at games or anything else, but for normal duties it'll work just fine.

Windows 98 ??? It's not a supported OS anymore so any issues you have will be tricky to solve .. perhaps.

Incase google eludes you:

PC with 300 megahertz (MHz) or higher processor clock speed recommended; 233-MHz minimum required;* Intel Pentium/Celeron family, AMD K6/Athlon/Duron family, or compatible processor recommended


128 megabytes (MB) of RAM or higher recommended (64 MB minimum supported; may limit performance and some features)


1.5 gigabyte (GB) of available hard disk space.*


Super VGA (800 × 600) or higher resolution video adapter and monitor


CD-ROM or DVD drive


Keyboard and Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device

(win xp home)

Sorry for using this forum for what it was meant Other_One. I couldn't run XP on a system w/ the same specs as Travo's. So I thought I might just make sure, get some opinions...
