2002 will run fine, but will all your hardware run ok? Check to make sure ALL your hardware has appropriate drivers first, and ALL software you use is also compatible b4 upgrading. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash j.hellingsworth <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:uS3l8.20857$[email hidden]... > Currently running Win98 > Thinking about upgrading to new PC with Win XP (home) > > Will Nascar 2002 run ok with XP? > > Thanks > > John Hellingsworth > > > >
No problems at all. In fact, my Microsoft FF wheel and pedals seem to have less trouble in XP than they did in 98 or Win ME. Nascar 2002 runs great. "j.hellingsworth" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:uS3l8.20857$[email hidden]...

Works great here. -- Fester "Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar." -- Julius Caesar
Yes, it runs just fine. I would highly recommend when you get your XP Home upgrade, you do a clean install - ie let XP format your hard drive for you during setup, and let it install clean. More work, but you'll end up with a more solid operating system. You just have to be sure you have your win98 cd so it can verify you qualify for the upgrade.

Great advice thus far, I too suggest going and getting all the necessary 'XP Updates' before installing the OS. This is especially true if you are using a SB Audigy card as they have an XP specific driver for it at www.soundblaster.com , it was the only thing that hung my XP install.
Yes, it will Got it running here under XP prof. greetings "Admin" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:uDNl8.8768$[email hidden]...
