Question
good day,

sir Lauren, do you know the asus' eee pc. can i change the operating system to windows xp? if possible, will all the drivers be safe. i asked our dealer here that i doesn't come up with a cd.

thanks. looking forward to hear you soon.

Answer
Yes you should be able to do this, however you'll need some form of installation medium (such as an external CD-ROM drive) and would likely benefit from more disk space and more memory, in order to maintain performance with a solution like the Eee.

Expertise

I have nearly two decades of experience in IT, computer repair, and related fields and will attempt to provide the most solid, brand-agnostic advice when it comes time to purchase a new computer, or upgrade an existing machine. I can answer anything from the seemingly basic to the downright complicated - and will do my best to provide this information in a clear and concise manner.

Experience

I have been an enthusiast of PC's for many years, and can answer questions about the purchase/use of a new computer or the purchase, installation, and use of upgrades for existing computers. There probably isn't a whole lot related to the home computer that I haven't seen over the years.
