Honestly, that computer is windows me/2000 era. It was old by the time xp came out. Considering 2000 is not the best for gaming, 98 is the next best choice. XP was more straining on the computer, so you wouldn't get the best bang for the buck. All drivers are fully 98/ME supported, and ME has always been pretty unstable. And Microsoft hid the ms-dos mode on ME, which makes 98 the only real choice for gaming.
XP was the best choice for pentium 4 onwards.
