Hi Denys & Olav :)
I definitely second Denys comments... I am now in the process of
slowly collecting info and data on selection of a new Laptop for the
house as my HP Pavillion N5190 is not able to realistically support XP
of any flavor... let alone Vista or whatever it is being called today...
So, at the risk of really starting a holy war... other than Macs
anyone want to make recommendations on features I should be looking for?
CPU model? Manufacturer? I must admit that I am a bit biased against HP
and Panasonic... The HP bias is because of the construction of the N5190
didn't live up to my expectations... so not a hard and fast bias..
So let the "discussion" begin ... hehehe

Can the response involve pyrotechnic compounds?
Seriously, a quick search at www.compaq.com shows that the Presario 5248
is only supported under Windows Me, 98 and 95. There is no mention of
Windows NT, 2000 or XP so I think you do not want to install any of
these on this PC.
The 5248 has a 400MHz AMD-K6 with 64MB of slow RAM for a maximum of
384MB.
This is woefully inadequate for W2K or WXP.

PC experts:
I am trying to install either w2k or wxp on a oldish PC Compaq Presario
5248 with AMD.
The reason is that the system just froze when booting up.
The problem is the system will not go past the identify of hardware.
Any suggestions ?
Olav.
