Just a quick question guys. I've managed to get a hold of a copy of windows XP. After musing it over, I'm not sure whether to install it. I currently have windows ME and wanted to ask you guys whether its worth installing XP.

I have:

866mhz Pentium Processor III
320mb Ram


So, What should i do?

I would choose xp over me. Me has bugs doesnt it?

Go for XP, but *first* make sure that your peripherals and such have drivers for winXP. Most should, but some cheap crap dosen't.

Oh yes ME has bugs everywhere. Mainly i was just wondering if my computer can handle XP.

Why don't you go to Amazon.com and look at the system requirements they have listed there?

Open control pannel and look at the system requirements...*sheesh*

Or you can always dual-boot for Me/XP but it is a little tricky to do so. I am currently running a dual-boot 98SE/XP Pro.

Well, XP is a VERY stable system compared to W98/95 or the dreaded ME. But it does need high specs...

Your PC is very much capable of running XP. A CPU is always a great idea, but I'm guessing that you would also need a new mobo for that, so maybe later. But memory, memory is cheap and helps a bunch! Try to get your hands on another 128 or preferably 256 stick. Go for it!
