Yes, but you will need to make sure the XP drivers are available..check the Dell website.

Not sure, but if you copy of XP is genuine, you can just download the SP from Microsoft. Download from: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx

The 95 version is probably not compatibile with XP...;

check the system requirements for XP and 2000...maybe you have enough to handle them but in the long run - you are better off getting something with XP already on it...even a $400 Dell would be much better than the 95 machine....click the link below....good luck...=)

Actually I had a similar problem. Surprisingly (and unfortunately) Windows 2000 does NOT have a compatability mode, like XP does. I eventually upgraded, but yea, my program wouldn't work. Give it a shot though. Good luck.

Here is a webpage that goes through the upgrade process for win2000 to xp hopefully it helps:\n\nhttp://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sg_2kupgrade.asp

both systems are almost identical in capability. XP is newer, so it has a longer support time left. Win2000 will probably not be updated with security patches beyond 2007, while XP will give you another year.\n\ni run WinXP on an AMD K7 600MHz, 256MB RAM, with no problems.

best bet is to find a Dell Restore disc.  Look at the bottom of the laptop and see if you have XP Home or Pro.  You can buy Dell restore CD's cheap on eBay, just make sure it's for the same version of XP that's on your laptop.\n\nYou should also visit Dell Support to see if the unit is still under warranty.

assuming you have windows XP..

You cant do it that way.  You need to install XP on that computer.  There are drivers that will not match up.  There is no real way around it.\n\nI am sorry, I misread you question.  Are you trying to install an upgrade version of Xp or a Full version?  When you said it failed, what is failing?  Are you getting any errors?  Does your computer meet the minimum requirements?

No.\nYou may trash your windows xp install if you try to install 2000\n\nYou could however format everything, install 98, then install 2000, then install XP. All on one drive if you want. You just cant install previous operating systems\n\nAlternatively, if you have enough RAM and a copy of Virtual PC or VMware you can install 98 or 2000 as a virtual operating system.\n\nGood luck.

Wow.. i would NOT put windows XP on that machine.  Your best choice i think would be a stripped down install of linux or Win98 SE at the most Win2k.\n\nIf you want to upgrade the system. The first step would be to get the ram up to at the very least 256MB and the hard drive up to about 10GB.  This will give you enough install flexability for whatever OS you end up choosing.

you got a tough row to hoe trying to get 95 and xp to work together, it is hard enough with 98 and xp. if you look around you might find some sort of software that will hook them up, but tried once or twice and gave it up. I just ugrade the 95 to 98 and get it going
