A Travelmate is a Pentium4 unit, isnt it? That's faster than the desktop I'm using to write this, so "dog slow" is definitely relative.

When installing laptops, you have to remember the drivers - laptops are full of specific gear that XP, and therefore the cutdown versions like microxp, don't have. When you say it won't boot, how far does it get? Have you tried safe mode? Have you ever installed a PC before? They all need answering before you think about how to hardwire the laptop into a car electrical system.
