XP should be possible, although usable is highly questionable. I recall some of the original Windows XP Tablet Edition prototypes using that C3 chip, but it couldn’t really keep up with what XP throws at it. Win2k might be worth a shot though.

I’m curious where this came from? Is it one of those early “mini PCs”?

I’m with SSanchez, 256 MB is sufficient to run XP, and would’ve been on the higher-end in 2001. The XP specs say 64MB is required, but if I recall, you can get it to work reliably (albeit slowly) on 32.

But regardless of OS or hardware, using the modern web now on only 256MB is another matter altogether.
