    hew... i got a samsung comp that is really old. it has celron 366mhz and 125mb of ram. recently, i tried to install xp on it but it kept failed and i plugged in the hd with xp on it but still no since at loading screen, it shows blue screen and reboots. keep doing this iff i let it. is it because the mb only supports window 98?? or what? i can;t get the eroor code because it is too quick to see and 98 doesn;t install as well

    Does the computer work, or is the hardware damaged?
