Windows XP on Netfinity 3510

Don't know if this is the correct forum, but have an IBM Netfinity 3510
server currently running server 2000. I would like to know if Windows XP
will work on this machine before i go down the path of changing the OS as I
am not sure i could reinstall Server 2000 correctly.

I plan to use the machine as a stand alone device running some audio studio
software.

Any suggestions?

You would need to perform a "clean install" of
Windows XP since one cannot upgrade over
a server version of Windows with Windows XP.
