But you are going from a 2700dpi (LS-2000) to a 4000dpi (LS-4000)
scanner. This very obviously does change the requirements of your
system, unless of course you use your new 4000dpi scanner only at
2700dpi. In addition, time seems to be of critical importance to you.
Even a cheap new system will outperform and old dual PPro@200Mhz by a
big margin, especially if you have lots of memory and a fast HD. So you
would be well advice to upgrade your computer.
