System Requirements Check

hey guys,, could you help me if what OS could possibly run on my netbook?
Here’s my Specs:
Intel(R) Atom (TM)
CPU N270 @ 1.60Ghz
797 MHz, 0.99GB of RAM
149 GB of Hard Disk Space
(Not sure if 32 bit or 64bit)
Could you help me if what OS would be compatible with it?..
Thanks!
Oh!, by the way it doesn’t come with a Disc Drive
so if you have links for tutorials for making a Bootable USB for my reformatting
it would be great.. Thanks again..

Answer #6
XP Pro SP3 or Linux. You might want to also consider upgrading the RAM to 2 GB.
To install XP from a flash drive, you can use WinToFlash

Linux distro’s use Pendrivelinux

I got one of these for my netbook and stuck a 1TB HDD and a Sony Optiarc optical drive in it, very handy, and less than £5.
