Reply: Give up on that idea - 64Mb is only enough for XP to barely run - although you have failed to specify, looks like the original processor (133MHz) is insufficient for XP as well There was likely a good reason this machine is running Win95 - a more recent version of Windows would overwhelm it Drivers are OS specific - have you tried searching for a Win95 one? ... the interests and rights of some individuals take precedence over the interests and rights of others

Reply: It would only just about make W98. I'd stick to W95 or get a machine with a far more ambitious spec. DerekW

Reply: ... seems to be waiting for that requested email (shouldn't hold his breath) Minimum specs are just enough to run an OS very poorly - - you'll be able to say "it runs" but little else I tend to agree with Paul Thurrott's recommended specs: 500 MHz or faster Pentium III and 256 MB or more of RAM That's my configuration (exactly) on my old Dell - while no powerhouse, it runs tolerably well ... the interests and rights of some individuals take precedence over the interests and rights of others
