Hello Dan,
Instead of using an instance of Windows XP solely to use Chirp.. you
might try using a bootable Linux CD. For example, Andy's HamRadio ISO:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kb1oiq-andysham/
Assuming your old computer can boot from a USB port, this ISO has Chirp
already installed. If you have a cutting edge radio, maybe the included
version of Chirp might not support it but if you use a USB pendrive that
has some extra space (the ISO is only 1.9GB), this distro will allow you
to do in-line upgrades and upgrade Chirp, etc. and it all stays on the
USB pendrive across reboots. Just like a real hard drive but it's
portable! Something to consider!
