Dell Latitude 630 - put on again

ch bin in den Besitz eine Dell Latitude 630 gekommen. Irgendwelche CD waren nicht dabei Diesen möchte ich für einen Schüler , der dem Precariat angehört und den ich betreue, herrichten. Das Notebook läuft mit XP/SP3. Ich habe noch eine alte Lizenz und eine CD XP/SP2 und möchte das Notebook neu aufsetzen. Ich bin schon etwas älter, habe dass aber vor Jahren schon mal für meine Tochter gemacht. Mein Plan ist, eine vorhanden HDD Seagate ST500LM021 einzubauen, den 2 MB Speicher auf 4 MB zu erweitern und eben wieder XP/SP3 zu installieren. Was ist die richtige Vorgehensweise und was ist beachten? Ich bedanke mich für jegliche Hilfe.

You may want to consider installing CloudReady Home on this laptop.  The software is free.

CloudReady is essentially software that turns that laptop into a Chromebook. The D630 is certified to work with CloudReady.

thank you Jesse L

I'd downloaded the drivers as suggested.

I didn't find MDC - can you please give me a  hint? The drivers in your post seems to be linked - but it doesn't work.

Regards

Thank you again Jesse L

the download side doesn't show a modem if service tag is hooked and filled. Only mobile cards are shown. But the Notebook has an outlet and I guess there is a modem - so I need MDC too.

Just as a reminder in case it causes you to revise your plans here, NONE of the major browsers still support Windows XP.  IE hasn’t been maintained for years especially on XP, and I believe the latest IE version available for XP lacks support for some newer protocols and algorithms that some sites now require for SSL/TLS connections.  Chrome won’t even install on XP anymore.  Firefox will, but only the Extended Support Release version, which means you'll only get security updates -- and even that only lasts until this coming May for XP.  This is all on top of the fact that Microsoft is no longer providing security updates for XP itself or definition updates for Microsoft Security Essentials running on XP, and you might be hard-pressed to find third-party security software that still supports XP either.

The useful life of this system is going to be very short (if any can be said to be remaining at all), and it will represent a security risk to whoever is using it.  If cost is a concern here, I would strongly recommend looking at a retailer like Discount Electronics, where you can buy used older PCs (though still newer than your D630) that come with Windows 7 licenses for very low prices.  Attempting to run on an operating system that was originally released over 16 years ago, long before the security threats in today's technology landscape existed, is simply a horrifically bad idea.

I agree - It is only for  an interim time. The pupil will use this notebook only a few months and then start with an own equiment of his own choice.  I am the reason for XP. I have no skill with linux, cloudready and so on. But I have knowledge of MS software and have this old notebook and valid keys and can give assistance until he had learned to work with a notebook.

I have different PC - with WIN98 , XP/SP3, Vista and Windows10. Only the Windows10 can be connected to the internet. Please don't give this thread an other direction - I'm aware of the very low security.
