My current desktop spec are as follows:

E-Machines from 2001, 512MB RAM, N-Vidia GeForce 4 @ 2200MHz, 1x 160GB formatted as a NTFS, 50GB partitioned for Ubuntu Linux 6.0.0.1, which refuses to upgrade or install *ANYTHING*, all using Windows XP.

I should upgrade to Vista Basic. I have Vista Premium on a Laptop though.

E-machines?  I'm truly sorry.  They're cheap, but they are the Biggest Smurfing Pain in the Rear to work on/with.
