There you go :-)

I must admit that once I found out about the V5 drivers for XP I just
had to try it myself, my brother has been running XP for a while on his
PC and we've seen very little trouble with it, I haven't had a chance to
test many games so far, but both "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" and
"Rally Trophy" works very well so far, and yes, it's very very stable,
although I can't OC my CPU as much as I could with 98SE, but those days
are almost over for me anyways so I don't consider that much of a
drawback really

Like I said in another thread, if I had a fully working 98SE I probably
wouldn't go out and buy XP, but if I had to pay for a Windows license at
this point anyway.......

Beers and cheers

Google-o-tron is no GPL! Really it's not GPL. I'm just saying, its no GPL.
No it's really not GPL.

Of course GPL is no Googlo-o-tron either.
