I don't know. If have just upgraded my AT to 386SX and my XT to a diskless machine for my daughter. Unfortunately I can't try it out for you, but looking at the performance of Windows 3.0 on my office AT (12 Mhz, 1Mb) I would expect that an XT will turn it self over with all (rubber) feet pointing upwards towards the blue sky ;-). The performance is so bad that I have given up trying to run windows on this machine, another 1Mb brings a lot of extra performance but I needed the memory for my SX.

Cheers
Ernie
