You might be able to download an OEM Copy of xp pro for a compaq. I know you do it with dell's... i might have a copy... let me do some digging on my server.... the OEM ones are actived from the factory so once you install you don't have to active and you can do all of the windows updates and such.

That would be appreciatated, now I do have xp on my dell desktpop that came with a cd....but when I turned that comp on xp was already loaded. Would that dick work....? I don't wana pay for it due to its no harm using the windows 2000 that it has its just aggrivating sometimes using it as its oldddd

Like ricer mentioned above, be careful on which releases you trust..

 

But it is XP essentially "tweaked" to operate in a small memory platform. Stripped of its frills and unnecessary services. You can usually get it installed in 150mb -200mb of space or less and will run like greased lightening.

 

Some guys use it for gaming..others for mini servers or car pc's ect.

Will probably get you started. Otherwise, just hit the newsgroups and you'll find a version or two around.

 

;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

There are also TinyVista distros out there too. This is when VMware comes in handy. You can sample them before deploying in your environment.
