"My goal is to record an IPTV-stream to a file. On a more recent computer
(Cope2Duo, 2.4GHz, I have a program based on VLC, so I wanted to try
it out on an old computer, but after your explanation I doubt it will work."

My reply: Is your hard drive even big enough to record a video stream?
A 100Mhz computer has no USB port to use with external drive.

"Visually the processor load seems to be more than 10%, so 100MHz will
probably turn out to be much too slow."
