NO

Actually, you can (I have), but it's not worth it.

You can install a hacked tiny version of Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 2500.

But unless you have 512mb of memory, you won't be able to run a single thing without having to wait an extreme amount of time. Even with 512MB (which is the maximum, if you believe the manual provided by Dell) it won't be pretty.

You can install it, however windows 7 needs at least 1.5gb ram to run correctly. I am currently using a dell optiplex gx270 3.0 ghz P4, 3.5gb ram, nvidia gforce 6200 graphics card and windows 7 ultimate and it works perfectly.

If you have bought a Windows Vista dell laptop you were going to put windows xp or windows 7 which one you are looking for best performance?

It depends on which O/S you feel the most comfortable with. However, be careful, some software you already have and want to put on your new computer when the O/S is installed may not work if you install Windows 7. However, having tested both at great length, i would choose Windows 7, as this in my view has better performance stats over XP. I would recommend a decent processor and decent amount of RAM in your machine before installing Windows 7. I minimum of 2GB RAM and possibly a duel core processor.

Which driver you will install in your PC?

Fortuantely, worrying about having all the drivers installed is no longer a huge problem for Windows users -- simply install Windows 7 or 8, run Windows Update afterwards and everything should work as expected. If you do experience any issues with a piece of hardware not functioning, you should manually install the drivers for that component using either the CD that came with it, or by locating it online.
