Well, as always I was trying to make some old games to run on my WinXP. I'm doing very very well and I must tell that I can make almost all old games I have to run under WinXP with the help of some patches

This site is cool. Basicaly it has a forum where u can ask solutions to the problems u r having running games/softs and a huge compatibility list there too . Highly recommended for XP users like me

www.ntcompatible.com

Hope it's of any use to anyone here

Ok One more great thing. There's a little program that allows us to play old DOS games on WindowsXP.
Make a search with eDonkey ( dunno if u can find it somewhere else ). after:

"scummvm_0.3.0b-win32.exe". It was tested with Monkey Island 1 and 2 and few other Lucas Arts games .

The news is at Sharereactor.com main frame page.
Cool, soon I can take away the crap win98 which only give me "This program has perfomed an illegal operation and will be closed" or the Blue Screen of Dead And use the great winxp
