it should work, I had xp pro on an old pentium 3 450 with only 96 megs of ram and it worked pretty decent.  Not blazing fast but fast enough to use.

depends on cpu speed really. If i remember right 333mhz P2 is the minimum u should run XP on. With 128 Meg you\'d be pushing it. Sure it\'ll work, donno how well though.

wow, i think your friend should upgrade his computer.  I don\'t mean spending hundreds on top of the line CPU/motherboard, etc.  Just upgrade to something like AMD Athlon XP +1800 should be fine for a while until he need serious upgrade later on such as over 3 Ghz CPU and better in the future...
