You need to get a Windows XP installation CD, and you'll probably be better off formatting and installing XP from that installation CD.

Depends on how much ram the laptop has. If it's under 256 you'll likely run a bit slow, under 192 and you'll pretty much have a paper weight. Not sure if a P2 can handle it or not.
I agree emrldsky...don't upgrade to XP, format then install XP. I found that many machines are more "unstable" with an upgrade rather than formatting the old OS off and installing a new OS.
