LOL I would, but they are paying me.  :)

Then, upgrade the memory to at least 256MB, or preferably to 512MB.



I agree about the memory upgrade, but technically, XP can load and run on a sys with these specs. Not run well, but yes, run. 


No - it doesn't run... it creeps!

I've used XP on systems with 256mb of RAM on numerous occaisions, and they work fine as long as your not doing really intensive work. A base installation on a system with 256mb RAM should not creep, even on a laptop.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:
