Why do you need to upgrade the OS? Win XP [and also MS Office 2003] are losing MS support as of April 8. That means no more patches and updates for vulnerabilities found in the OS and software.
Continuing to run XP and Office 2003 after April opens yourself wide open to hacker attacks ...

I suggested keeping XP and simply using a free Linux distro to surf online. Easy and free.

Continuing to run XP and Office 2003 after April opens yourself wide open to hacker attacks ... I've found a convenient and free way around that.
