re: Why should I do that? Monday, August 12, 2002 at 5:12 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by newrone (1 messages posted) C'mon, I must've sent about 200 error reports, & Microsoft have sent "fixes" about 3 times, all directing me to a Windows XP fix site, while I'm running '98. I read them & tried them anyway, with no difference whatsoever. If they can't even tell from their report which of their OS's I'm using, how can you expect them to solve/fix any of these bugs?!
