As many have said windows xp eol is taking place in two months, and the laptop probably may require more ram to be added so it can be upgraded to either windows 7 or windows 8.1(if compatible). I think removing xp completely and installing a linux distro is a safer choice

Here is a nice read: Microsoft's Tim Rains explaining in his blog the risks of running windows xp with no support.
