I am currently running a very similar system that I built a year or so ago.

Athlon XP 2800+
2x 512Mb DDR1 PC3200 Ram sticks
Western Digital 80 Gb HDD
XP SP2 w/ MediaPortal 1 RC 3
ATi 9250 AGP Card
Hauppauge Nova T 500 DVB-T tuner
Hauppauge DVB-T / Analogue tuner

DVI -> HDMI output.

I runs quite well. I was using 0.2.3.0 for a while but I recently upgraded to 1.0.0.0 RC3, frankly I think that 0.2.3.0 worked better on the hardware. Still, it may just need some more tinkering :)
