    1 year trial... Have you ever used Windows without reinstalling it in a year... I wonder.
  • IBMWarpsterIBMWarpster
    Yes, the family PC becuase I don't have to fuck with it

    I used my P4 on XP Home for about 2 years, I think. It sucked ass when I finally rfmt'd.
  • IBMWarpsterIBMWarpster
    Some of the older PC's I got I've never reformatted more than 3 times
  • SurfinShell23SurfinShell23
    Our PC that we got in.... 2000? Was only reformatted once.

    It's a Cele400, it had 98 on it until a year or so ago, when I put 2k on it. It too sucked ass before the rfmt.
  • IBMWarpsterIBMWarpster
    You must have problems or something. When I reformat, they run the same as they did when I just installed them wheather it'd be installed for 2 years or a month

    This PC was from when I was younger, and we had a ton of crap on it.

    The XP was just filled with stuff from two years of useage...

    Well, other then it can't decide if it's XP, or 2003, and it tries to screw Ffx, it's alright.

    I've only been using FireFox for a little while and probably
    should keep my mouth shut, but it can sink it's tentacles
    in pretty deep. I'm currently running mine uninstalled and
    that may work for you. Just get the program after it's been
    installed and copy it somewhere else. You can then uninstall
    it and run the program as a stand alone. I use the old
    Netscape the same way just to get the composer.

    Alright so you have XP 64, now all we need are 64 CPUs... Due to the fact that AMD's can execute 32bit operations much quicker as it is a modified x86 architecture, I am almost swayed in that direction. Lets hope Intel does something nice with Itanium in the future.
  • IBMWarpsterIBMWarpster
    Nah, AMD will still beat them.
  • QQ
    But Intels with EM64T are sortof the same as A64s. @ least the have the same x8664 instructionset.

    The only reason I'm annoyed @ DEP and think it's up to something is that those are the ONLY to apps that have annoyed DEP. And when I had SP2 on XP32 AIM and GPGShell also caused problems. Now AIM has no problem and I haven't tried GPGShell again yet.

    I never keep my OS without reinstalling it for more than 3 months... sometimes even less...
    For example, XP once crashed in a day...
