Nope. You will need to add RAM. And the notebook DID originally come with
128MB. This is direct from the QuickSpecs on it:

System Memory 128 MB 100 MHz SyncDRAM, Shared Memory Architecture,
Upgradable to 320 MB
- 4 MB Dedicated for Video Memory

64MB
was on the motherboard and a 64MB SODIMM in the memory slot. The slot can
take up to a 256MB SODIMM, for a max 320MB total.

I'll try to load XP, but if there's a physical problem with the memory I
still
need to get that fixed. Can the motherboard memory be changed easily?
There
is no RAM in the memory slot, so there must only be 64MB in the system.
Is
that even enough to run XP?
