XP Performance on Pentium II?

[Al Klayton]

I have a 350MHz Pentium II system with 128MB of Ram, currently running
Win98. I plan to replace the existing 6GB hard disk with a new 40GB unit and
install XP Pro. Any reason not to expect good performance from the new
system?
Thx,
Al

Hi,

It'll work, but you might want to get some more RAM on your system.
I have a machine running on a Pentium 2, 300MHz with a 40GB hd and it's
working nicely however not super fast but it is useable and bearable.
