    I only definately know Grand Theft Auto 2. All new-er games will work with XP. Give us a list of programs or games that you want and we'll see if we know whether they're compatible or not.

    Keep 98?? No fargin way... 98 is the most unstable peice of junk currently used today...

    If you want rock-solid stability, get 2000 (Pro).

    If you want stabilty and gaming, get XP (Pro, NOT Home).

    actaully there is a neogeo fix out there to work on xp.....my neighbour has it....i'll post the hash tomorrow......as for gamin and apps...dos games are a no no in xp....some games if you use to the compatiblity wizard to run them in the respective windows os they run find.....same for apps....

    my advice..... am.......upgrade to xp pro if u are.....use the key generator and hack i posted in the verified section.....otherwise stick to 98se

    i like xp.....no problems so far.....i guess once your pc can handle xp you should upgrade...i have a p4 2.0 and 256 ram and a 80 gig hd....so...upgrade only if your pc can support xp...it needes at least 128 mb of ram to run stablely(is that a word)

    the young ones in my family had trouble with their catz, dogz and babyz series under XP. Oneof my friends also claims problems with Age of Emps 2 (maybe microsoft upgraded protection with that) but other than that i havent had any trouble and all newer games will work. Pro i better than home.

    Chrome and neogeo? What are they? I never heard of them.

    My main concern is games like Half-Life, RTCW, Baldur&#39;s Gate 2, Tropico, GTA3, etc., etc. Also apps like Photoshop, TMPGenc, Virtualdub, Nero...

    Compatibility List. You can check on software, hardware, games, etc that work/won&#39;t work under XP. Take a look, see what details are provided as well.
