Xandros question?
On my computer right now I have Xandros desktop pro 4. I want to install windows xp on the same hard drive. I want to know if when I install xp if I can set it up so I have a dual boot screen when I turn on the computer. Also if I can how would I go about doing that. Thanks for all your help.

550 MHz and 256mb ram is well within minimums for XP. It won't be a speed demon but it will work fine. Published bare minimums are 233 MHz and 64mb. I would recommend at least a 10gb partition for XP.
