WinNT or Win9x?
gotta freind's laptop I'm workin on,
and it's ancient.....
P1 266MHz (I think)
64 MB PC66 RAM
it obviously cant go past Win98
(well, it could take WinME, but I wouldn't do that to a friend)
if I remember right, WinNT needs a little less in the h/w specs....

Windows 98 Second Edition.
Or... If it's really 266 MHz then you could run Windows 2000 with some more RAM.
See min req for Win2000: http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000...qs/default.asp

98lite?
I'd go for 98 SE.
NT sucks big hairy balls IMO...

agree with 100% - put 98 on it, and then grab a copy of 98lite, and strip the crap from it. It will run much nicer

Another option is to get some used RAM.

well, that's kinda what I was thinking,
that PC100/133 would be backwards compatable,
but had second thoughts lookin through IBM's site
meh. I know a guy locally that has used parts,
a whole feckin garage full of em
may go to him and see if he has something that'll fit
