XP needs about 90 mb of RAM to run efficiently....
Though it will run on like 40 mb probably, but then you need RAM for other stuff too....
Laptops are hard to upgrade aswel, its very fiddly.
windows xp is designed to work on a 512 mb Ram system. WHich means that running it on 40 will be so slow that it will take forever to load up. Windows xp will NOT run efficiently on a 90 mb ram system either.
