rec.autos.simulators

   With a new drive configuration my system  recovery
tapes are  useless, so I need to reload Windows and
Solaris from scratch.  

   I use Windows is only for games.  

   Is there any reason to go with WIN ME, 2000 (which
I have in a box) or stick with 98, and upgrade to XP
later?  

                                              Thanks

Win 2000 is more stable than ME, but not particularly useful for *** IMO.

Don't use w2k for GPL if you have a Logitech Wingman FF wheel (original or
GP). There's a rather severe twitch problem that makes me crash. I have an
original Wingman FF and the newer GP version, and both do it. I've tried
everything I can think of and everything suggested at this newsgroup with no
success. Although GPL runs faster and smoother (and doesn't have the memory
limitation problem--GPL requires the replayMemoryOverride setting in 98/ME
to limit it to 256; without the override, it won't work correctly), but the
twitch problem is so irritating that I can't drive.

   Thanks to everyone for your responses.  I don't
think there is any compelling reason to upgrade.
