Hello Falco40,
Firstly - welcome to
CompuForums. We provide our computer help for free, so we would highly appreciate it if you could help us. You can do this by answering other people's questions, or if you are not so technically-minded, post in our general lounge forum. Alternatively you can purchase a premium membership to help contribute to the rising running costs of this site. If you can't help us then we can't help you. This system allows us to continue to provide free computer support.
You might have to find a few drivers, but you can copy them over to the laptop using a memory stick. XP should be fine on there, and will run better too.
