I'm having problems installing some programs on my computer ever since I
installed Service Pack 2, and no solutions are working. One thing I'm
thinking of trying is to install XP on an old computer that I have sitting
around collecting dust so I can use some of these programs, but I have 3
questions:
1. What are the system requirements for running WindowsXP? This old
computer only has a 4 GB hard drive and I don't remember how much memory or
what type of processor it has (whatever the norm was about 5 years ago).
2. The WindowsXP CD says its only to be used to reinstall to a Dell
computer, and my old computer is not a Dell. Will it still work?
3. I'm not familiar with installing an operating system. How do I begin?
The old computer currently has Windows 95 on it...do I just start by putting
the WindowsXP CD in and installing it, or do I need to delete everything
first. Where do I start?
