I don't use either one..
Am using free MSE with Windows Firewall along with MBAM and SAS(both free spyware protections).

This works for me but may not work for you.

Kaspersky Pure is better than Internet Security, but is more Resource hungrier.

First of all i would like to say that when i tried kaspersky last time a couple of year ago i found it resource hungry i am not sure what version 2012 is like. That being said i would advice you too use the trial period to see how it performs because each pc is different in terms of hardware and software environment so something lightning fast for me might be slow for you so its always best to try the AV before purchasing it. Kaspersky pur and kaspersky 2012 differ in terms of functionality so look carefully in terms of what you need. The core virus detection engine and update frequency would be same so look at the chart and decide what you need. For example pure has two more function namely password manager and data backup. IMO both are use less function because you can use keepass or lastpass as password manager (both free) and also use paragon back up and recovery or macrium reflect to back up your data (both have free version). Now its up to you how much you want to spend.

PS: you are still using xp service pack 2 please update your OS its really important to keep all your software as well as the OS up to date for security reason.

Both can cause BSOD's I would go with MSE.

I ran PURE on my Netbook which had no BSOD's, except it delayed the Startup and Shutdown.

And my Netbook only had 1GB Ram, 1.66Ghz Atom Process with Win 7 Ultimate.

1 Gig is the absolute minimum amount of ram for win 7

Doesnt matter. Kaspersky often caused BSOD's, slow downs, freezes, etc.

could try both their trials and see which one suits you but im another MSE user,other antiviures ive used before is avast,commodo,norton and avira anyways useing MSE because its less resource hungry and i want all the ram i can get because i game on this machine anyways only antivirues thats gave me problems is avast and norton they let a virues slip by and norton liked to eat my ram not sure how it is now but that was around 3-4years ago when i used nortons antivirus secuirty
