I have winme but it's shit literaly with all it's blue screens of death and what not, so im thinking of changing to either win98se or Winxp pro, but i've heard that winxp needs a fast computer, will my computer specs run it with no problems or is it too slow

I think your specs should do. WinMe I think is just 98SE with a service pack.

You should be ok with xp I have xp pro on a comp with 667 mhz 512ram..You might want to upgrade ram xp loves ram..One thing about xp you won't see the blue screen of death anymore..When it crashes its a soft crash that you can get out of by ending task. B)

There really is no comparison. WinXP is the way to go.
