Hey all, i bought an outdated hp conpaq dc5100 sff base, xp 32 bit already on it, pretty cheap at a sale with the hopes of 'popping the hood for a tune up and an new os of windows 10. I have been met with several turns of doubt and some of favorable hopes. Can anyone tell me if my machine is even capable of the upgrade to windows ten? Its got a pentium 4 in it and i upgraded ram to 4 gbs. The computer only has 40 gbs with it but i planned on using external drive or networked one. Im also confused about the 32 and 64 bit?? I was told if i am running one or the other to stick with it in the future.but had sveral people tell me that it didnt matter. Im worried im going to buy a new OS and waste it on the install.ANY ADIVCE??? Hi: The DC 5100 will not run W10 correctly because there is no Intel graphics driver for W10. You would have to purchase a rather expensive (for what you get) PCI video card for W10 to work. You can install W7, and manually install the Intel XP driver to get the graphics to work, but that trick won't work on W10. Some pentium 4 processors can't run a 64 bit operating system, so I would need to know what model P4 processor you installed (650, 630, 520 etc).

Not double, but more. Since you maxed out the memory, you would be OK with installing a 64 bit OS, provided the processor you installed is 64 bit capable.
