I'm running XP home, and I'm not liking it one bit. I've never had so many OS problems, and I ran 98se for the longest time. I've sent so many error reports to Microsoft that they probably think I'm spamming them. I used to have my games freak out after a couple of hours, ram problems, but never in 5 minutes. I locked up one time just trying to turn on the computer. It's not a home installation either, came on the machine.

Better to install it again yourself - from scratch. Yeah, I know: "That will take hours!"; but so do multiple crashes. |

Win ME wasn't a prob for me since it was properly configured... [img]smile.gif[/img]
Windows XP I installed myself... no problems... squeaky clean! I wonder why a lot of people rant about it... and ME... the only drawback with XP is its security patches... tons of them... but they wouldn't pose any problem if you are DSL or have a fast connection. [img]smile.gif[/img] If I were you, I would get Win XP Pro... but then that's just my personal opinion... XP over ME is my stand... and as long as you are hands-on with your PC either way will go fine for you anyway Good Luck! |
