PC with 1.5 GB ram

[Chocolate]

I have a PC with 1.5 GB ram, It came with XP installed that worked fairley well, but after installing Win 7 it works much to slow (I need to install Windows 7 + because otherwie I can’t install any filter), is there any other option that I have? will 8 or 10 be better? or maybe a special light OS?

After searching I did find loads of light versions, that makes the matter even more complicated, now I am all confused what to use, I guess I will need to try a few and see the results for myself.

@Chocolate is there no way to add some RAM?

BTW 32 bit versions of the OS will use somewhat less RAM

There is no extra slot,
Is there a way to change the existing one to a bigger one?
