don't see why it wouldn't. might be a little sluggish though.

It should run but just like Win2K it will like more ram.

I put xp on a 300@450 celeron a with 256mb ram, runs just fine, of course slower than on my amd systems though.

It runs fine on my Celeron 366@550... Should run just fine on that...

It'll run fine, you'll probably want to turn off some of the eye candy though.

I have Win2k Pro on a 266MHz PII laptop... it has 32 or 64MB ram. Runs slow, but very stable

Heh-heh...I used to have Win2K running on a P5/133 with 32 megs for months at a time without rebooting...of course, the box was only used for target/host debugging, so I would disable audio and any other extraneous things not needed. Ran spiffy for what I needed it to do.I have Win2k Pro on a 266MHz PII laptop... it has 32 or 64MB ram.
I'm currently running my Win2K debugger on a P5/166 MMX with 64 megs (it definitely likes more RAM...)
