Hi All Noob here. Joined up today and been searching... I've got an old laptop - very basic. No CDROM. 128Mb p2 and I want to use it for basic web browsing etc. It originally was installed with win98 and it ran ok but I want to load xp onto it. I've managed to get xp pro installed but it runs like a dog. I was also looking at something called tinyxp but this only seems to work off a bootable cd - not an option for me. I am now thinking that nlite may be the answer and I can build a xp kit to install that will run within the 128Mb of ram available. Does anyone have any thoughts on the best way of minimizing the RAM footprint ? thanks in advance Jeff / wertert
