If your clients are currently running any unsupported operating systems, you must upgrade the client to a supported operating system before installing Office XP. Alternatively, you can exclude from your Office XP deployment the computers that are running unsupported operating systems.
The approximate minimum hardware requirements for Office XP are:
Pentium 133 or higher, PIII recommended
32 MB RAM, plus 8 MB additional per open application (128 MB is recommended), and 128 MB required for speech functionality
280 MB disk space for a restricted, minimum installation, but at least 600 MB is recommended
For more information about system and disk requirements, see the system requirements at https://microsoft.com/office/evaluation/sysreqs.htm.
