Reply to Upgrade to XP? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

It depends on what you use the PC for. Since you are here, and obviously like to customize, I would say "yes". It has all the goodness of 2000 with extra goodness. Plus, a lot of new programs are written for XP, so they run better on XP than on previous versions of Windows.

video drivers will do that to you. My laptop had some "issues" with XP until I upgraded my video drivers. The only time I have issues with my computer now is when my husband messes something up. (Now....isn't *that* a bit of role reversal?)

The only things that I can think of are: cookie issues or, they are trying to use their info to log into the store when buying something (it has a returning customers log on). Obviously, they can log on to the site....so that isn't the problem. Not really sure with this, and the other thread makes no more sense than this one.....

Than each of what? Not all states in the US are the same. Some have extremely low crime rates. Some have very little poverty. Where are the stats on that comparison? The point is, is that each *state* in the US could be considered a country. If they were all governed completely with their own laws, I think that they would all be quite different. (Just compare California to Alaska). You just can't compare the entire US to a country that has that small of a population. I think tha

I never look at statistics like that "rating a country". I don't know how you can rate a country with the population of the US against the population of Norway. The US has a population of about 287,000,000. Norway is about 4,500,000. Even Canada is only about 32,000,000. If you combine the "top 5", you still only have the population of roughly 1/3 of the US (the top 5 add up to a population of 75,500,000). Trust me, there is a massive difference in how the "quality of life" is depending on

It's true that the serials are attached to the "purchaser". It's pretty easy to find the person who "releases" this stuff once we see a serial number. Unfortunately, this is nothing new to us. I'm sure that somebody could have a full time job fighting warez.

Doesn't anyone else see the irony in MSN having issues with XP? he he Do you have XP Pro or Home? I had MSN on XP and didn't have any problems. Is this MSN 7 or 8? If you only have 7, you may need to upgrade to 8. Also, you may have your internet security too high, or have the firewall enabled (as is suggested already)

GM-"FL: May not be long now before they have me 'fixed' Uh Oh.... what doc is that? Getting 'fixed' sounds a little suspicious to me. goodmorphing wonders if this means that we will have to make room for another soprano on our chorus?" I was thinking the same thing. Why do they call it "fixed" when they are really "breaking" something? I have three dachshunds, all of which have been "fixed". They are still mad at me......

Thanks, IPlural and stark23x! I'm glad that other people realize this. Makes me feel a lot better. I have worked here at Stardock a long time, and every now and then I just get burnt out with dealing with the "anti-corporation" people. The "anti-corporation" people seem to not be able to see the "people" aspect of all this. I *work* at Stardock. It is what pays my bills. This isn't done for the fun of it (though, it is fun <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/lol.gif" border=0
