I agree whole heartedly. Windows xp home edition is the biggest lot of bullsh-t i've ever purchased. Gates should be ashamed of himself. Cowboy or what? I cant get half of my old games to work, even after compatibility checks. I've already had to purchase a new video card, as voodoo 3 won't operate with xp, unless someone out there knows different. I cant even get my sidewinder game pad to install. Geez, how much more do I have to spend to get this crap to work out? Should've stuck to win 98 as I had no problems with that system, and they call this progress? The proverbial two steps forward and three steps back. Gates! back to the classroom.
