Good idea ...

....given the spec I would have thought that you'd be looking at either
an install of Linux or an install of Win98SE.

Win2k and XP won't even install on a 100MHz processor - neither will
M.E. (Just in case you were sick enough to consider M.E.)

98SE is pretty stable though ... And doesn't make huge demands on
resources. Maybe we could get a clean Win98SE install and a clean
install of Linux and just ghost on one of those?

Well, as discussed this evening I'd hopefully be able to help out...
