Sorry, but do you mean 640 MB or 640kb. If its the latter (which I am guessing it is,) then no. Windows needs a minimum of 16MB to run. And Windows 98-higher needs a minimum of 64mb

well i once had 3.11 on like 4 megs and 98 on like 12 so it must be possible to run something on it.
I should be able to upgrade it to 10 soon (found some really old ram)
