Checking the Dell support site, the only driver downloads listed for the  
Dimension 4100 are for Windows 98, ME and 2000. So my reaction would be that it  
doesn't support XP. But you might e-mail them to be sure.
I'm not sure about the compatibility utility you're looking  for.

It seem  to recall there was a Microsoft utility program which could be run a 
on a  computer and it would tell if the computer and it's components were 
compatible  with Win XP. The utility may be included on the XP disk, but I'd like 
to run  it before I purchase the XP operating system disk. I can't find it. 
Does  anybody know if that utility is available, and where I could get it? The  
computer in question is a Dell Dimension 4100 with Win ME and 512 RAM. Thanks 
 for any help. Bob
