Until early next year when I will buy new computers, I’m using a 2008 Core 2 Duo 2.5GHz Sony laptop running Windows 7 that plays youtube videos online okay without overheating.
But if possible, I would also like to add wifi to (yes lol) a Pentium IV 3.2GHz Dell desktop pc; 2GB memory. It runs Windows XP SP3 and has this video card.

Firefox ended support for Windows XP but I have Opera 36 installed. Otherwise, Internet Explorer 8 is said to be the safest choice, as Microsoft apparently does in fact continue to supply security patches. https://geekcrunch.reviews/review-internet-browsers-windows-xp/
I certainly won't be doing any online with this dinosaur other than shopping, email and playing 720p youtube videos.
ASUS presales recommended this.

I've always read that ASUS was supposed to be long a trusted motherboard brand, but customer experience seems much less positive here at least with this product.

And could I expect even more problems than these customers had with this wifi adapter if used with Windows XP 32 bit systems?
Or might there be another USB wifi adapter that would likely work much better
in my case?
