I am sure its a Pentium2 300 128M Ram, but I have installed it to AMD K6/2
266 64M Ram, it works but not too fast.

Read "XP Install" posted by me and replies. Check out the microsoft website
at
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/evaluation/sysreqs.asp for Pro and
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/evaluation/sysreqs.asp for Home.

XP(Pro) seems to run fine (here) on as low as 266Mhz/128MB RAM and a 4
Gig HD(swap and hibernate incl.)

Althogh Performance is at the lowest end with such a system.
And I would not "recommend" to install any further Programm like
Office, Photoshop or the likes.

But for use as a simple file/print/web/proxy/mailserver it will be
sufficient.

A new computer is exactly what you need.

Why do you want to run XP on such a low end system where performance would
be sloooooooooooooooooow?
