DJ Premier August 27, 2002 Share DJ Premier Member August 27, 2002 Besides the fact that XP doesn't run CS well for me, it's been great. Well, at least it keeps me from playing too much. I crash every 12 minutes or so, so it keeps me in line with my other household duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoMamma August 27, 2002 Share YoMamma Member August 27, 2002 I just installed Win XP Pro about 5 days ago I believe. I love it. The comp runs so much faster. I am the 1st one in CS servers now due to fast loading. I have had no problems with it, except that Open GL on my VooDoo5 don't work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kohlin August 28, 2002 Share Guest Kohlin Guests August 28, 2002 I would say like i say to all others. stay away from a new os until 1-2 years after it's release. By then you should hope most bugs and what not have been resolved. XP has had some issues with the updates killing stability. I would recommend win2k if you have it, since it can be used without the stupid registraton process. both are good though. stay away from ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Orbital September 24, 2002 Share Guest Orbital Guests September 24, 2002 I'll be posting in the Fall3N forum soon about how to update WIndows XP SP1, it's a bit tricky, but follow the orb and you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UberNewb September 24, 2002 Share Guest UberNewb Guests September 24, 2002 I've been using XP awhile, and I love it. I've only had one problem where I had to call Microsoft for help (and they'd never heard of it, so they named it after me. Score!) So as long as you don't see something pop up on your screen and tell you something like 'Insurmountable RAM error' you should be smooth.

ConGregation September 24, 2002 Share ConGregation Member September 24, 2002 I think Im going to take the plunge to XP soon. Is there any real reason to fork over the extra cash for the pro version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camel_Man September 26, 2002 Share Camel_Man Member September 26, 2002 yomamma the reason why stuff was running slow on your comp is because u need to download your ide bus master controller driver, and your agp miniport driver. most of that is included in xp if u got a via motherboard i suggest xp, i hate the via 4in1s for 2000 2000 in my opinion is much better, for all you xp users goto start run and type in services.msc see all that junk in there? most of its useless and all of it takes up your ram. 2000 has a little less than one third of services compared to xp. both os's are on nt kernel so ur pretty much getting the same thing, just that xp has a ton of junk and it looks pretty (the pretty look takes 25-30 megs of ram lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
