I'm sure you realize that your hardware is obsolete?
If you won't consider the obvious, a new computer, here's how to get
assistance (if there js a solution) with Windows XP.
As you appear to be using a web interface, try this to find an appropriate
group:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/
In the tree on the left, open English, then open Windows. In the Windows
subcategory, find
and open the subcategory for Windows XP, and find a group there for your
post.
