comper6 Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 I dual boot Windows XP Professional and Vista Home Premium. I was anxious to install Vista as people said you need a quad core superHz make you toast in the morning processer with 5000TB of DDR80000 Ram to use it, and my Pentium 4 3.0GHz with 1.5GB of Ram runs it like it was made for it. I use XP for gaming though, Vista + ATi Drivers = FAIL. 1) 5000TB: I hope thats a typo 2)Great idea to dual boot xp and vista, just restart in to another os, also you can share files between partitions The computer is mightier than the sword Click here for cool stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aethec Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Bull**** ...IE6 is slower, not standards-compliant, has no tabs, no popups blocking, is really old, hasn't got any of the new things in modern browsers like FF 3.1 / Chrome 2 / IE8 / Opera 10 / Safari 4, ... Why don't you want to upgrade to Vista (or Seven when it'll be out) ? @Corona : PB = Petabyte = 1024 TB. Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 @Corona : PB = Petabyte = 1024 TB. Ah know. Peanut Butter tastes much better than Teanut Butter. Oh, and I'm using XP Home SP3, and WinME (not upgraded) on an HP 98/95 Pavillion, 512 ram, Pentium4 1700, nVidea GeForce2 MX/MX 400 (heh). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which system is the nVidea GeForce2 MX/MX 400 on WinXP or WinME? Thats the same graphics card as mine. Or do you have a dual boot system?

I have both XP and ME on the same drive, in their own partitions. They both use the GeForce2 card. I don't run both XP and ME at the same time of course. Boot Magic pulls up a choice box when I boot, and from there I choose either XP or ME to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunerz Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I have XP Pro SP3 in desktop, XP Pro SP2 in Compaq Presario Laptop, and Vista SP1 in Dell Inspiron Laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keithuk Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 They both use the GeForce2 card. So do you have the different drivers for both systems? Keith Windows XP 2002 SP3 IE 7.0 Martin2k Rorshach112 is the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 So do you have the different drivers for both systems? I installed 93.71 forceware for XP (latest one that still works), and whatever older driver that came with ME's installation disc for ME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keithuk Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I installed 93.71 forceware for XP (latest one that still works), and whatever older driver that came with ME's installation disc for ME. I donwloaded drivers from Nvidia when I had the card. When I tried to install after a rebuild the drivers were corrupt. I went back to Nvidia but they weren't listed anymore so I joined their forum and found them on their Nvidia forum, v81.98.

wmcintosh Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Went back to XP Pro. Linux will be installed again, either on a older PC or dual boot, haven't decided. William (or Bill) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
