Should work with little problem. You could buy a new desktop box also, but the upgrade might work fine and be less money. My desktop still works fast and fine, so I'm going with the upgrade for now.
I have an 8 year old Dell Dimension 3100 desktop computer which has Windows Home XP. Now that support and security updates have ended for Windows Home XP what should people like me do who still have a computer with Windows Home XP? Can you install a more up to date operating system on a desktop computer that currently has Windows Home XP or not?
