I have some other ideas for you as well, but no time to write tonight. Don't give up on robotics though. There are people in this community who will do whatever we can to help.
check if windows 7 can be installed on your pc which it looks like it can upgrade advisor tool
If you have a usb port and a usb stick you can install it that way, piratebay and utorrent are your friends ...hint
download utorrent and install
then search the bay for windows 7
usb cost probaby $5.00 for an 8gig "thats all you will need"
download this tool to make the usb boot disk win 7 usb boot maker
stick the usb in and reboot- press F12 or F8 to select your boot device or go into your bios and set the usb to boot first
install
enjoy
ARC Version 2013.03.18.00 WILL install on Windows XP, I just checked and I am running 2013.03.18.00 at work. I even uninstalled, redownloaded and reinstalled it to make sure.
Personally I would avoid upgrading to Windows 7 on that system. You may, if lucky, be able to run Windows 7 starter but anything above that and you only have about 25% of the minimum recommended spec.
The main problem you will have is the small amount of RAM your system has, I would recommend upgrading the RAM. It is a cheap upgrade and will give a performance boost to everything. ARC is a powerful tool and as such does have quite a demand on system resources for some controls.
However, if it is a basic project ARC will run and will control, with voice, your robot.
P.S. The ODD is a CDRW/DVD which means it is a CD burner. What disc do you have? If they are CD-R or CDR/W they should work. If DVD then no.
it says its a [CD-ROM]
