	Put the disk in.

	If it doesn't start by itself, open my computer or
	windows explorer, go the the drive where the disk
	is, run setup.exe and follow the instructions.

	You might want to try Windows 2000 first.  Or,
	look into optimizing XP.  There's a lot that can
	be done.

	I just went to the Dell site and looked up the
	Dimension 8100.  It says it's a Pentium 4 running
	at 1.3 to 2.0 GHz with 128 MB to 2 GB of RAM.
	As long as there's a decent amount of RAM,
	XP should run fine.  With enough RAM a Pentium III
	box will run XP.  I'm writing this on a 900 MHz
	Athlon (PIII equivalent) with 1 GB of RAM that runs
	XP easily/responsively.  My last box had ME and it was
	okay, but I like XP more.  If I had to downgrade, I'd
	try 2000 first.  And if I had your box I'd figure out
	what is slowing it down.  It's plenty powerful enough
	to run XP properly.
