If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm sticking with 98SE until a move is neccesary. -- - Will DeRivera - GPL Rank 105.63, damn the 'ring! - http://www.numic.net - http://www.luxt.com

Simply install XP as dual boot, then you'll still have your existing OS to go back to if things don't quite work out in XP.. Thats what I did, Win98/XP dual boot,, works great... On Thu, 13 Dec 2001 10:46:35 -0500, "Pierre Boulet" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Works fine. I was running online last night & I was getting 50+ fps. PIII 850@910 384MB PC133 GeForce 2 GTS 32MB SoundBlaster Live! Windows XP Home Edition -- Fester

I have XP installed with 384Mb RAM Geforce 2 MX 900 Mhz AMD Athlon NFS:Porshe Unleashed was unplayably slow in Win98 compatibility mode, as PU would not play natively. I would say if the game does not support Win2000 or XP natively, stick with what you have. Duane On Thu, 13 Dec 2001 10:46:35 -0500, "Pierre Boulet" <[email hidden]> wrote:
