I needed Windows for my old laptop, it ran Windows 98. I like Windows XP because it's great for gaming.
you do realizean OS does not change the specs of your computeryou still wont be able to play stuff
I realize that, I put a new hard-drive in, and on Win98 it was so slow because of the programs, so I reformatted.
bullstuff, vista and windows use more ram and require better specs to run. XP is smoother and can spare more ram and stuff.
