You just meet the bare minimum. More RAM is recommended.

most basic rule before upgrading OS is to check if all drivers for your current hardware are available for new OS.according to this link there are no official windows 8 drivers for your mobo:

i suggest windows 7 32bit & forget about windows 8.

No. I don't think XP drivers will work. See if the Windows 7 drivers work-

There are no official drivers for Win 8 of your motherboard.
