The machine is relatively old, so don't expect Windows 8 to run on it with anything like the speed that XP did. If I were you, I would either stick with XP or upgrade your hardware. Why do you want to move from XP to 8 anyway...?

Difficult to say 100%. If it still has only 1GB RAM and you're intending to install Windows 8 Pro edition, then it may not run very well...

In which case, there's a good chance the Windows 8 will run on it.

Hi MarkRae, One thing I did forget to ask was, is the fact that this laptop is an X86 PC (32 bit) model (like most) going to be a problem? Thanks again.
