    Default Me hate XP

    erhhh....
    i got a Fire Storm Dual Force thing from thrustmaster. On ME it works fine, but when I use it on XP, the only thing that works, is the joypad itself....not the force feedback! I dl the newst drivers but still it doesn't work! what can I do?
    I'm just a lurker these days, I feel like an 80 year old gramps, watching his grand children play outside *sigh*

    WinXP does so have DOS. I use DOS from WinXP almost every day.

    Well, I love linux. It makes me FEEL cool, XP has too many bells an whistles IMO and some of the linux gui's (afterstep) can look REALLY awesome. Incase you didn't know, linux can have over 200 different looks on one PC, and it's NOT the same like themes on windows , but stability in XP kicks too. Me isn't as nice as Win98 though..

    Well me has me (good word joke isn't it) but a friend of mine who has got WinXP can't get anything to run on his computer. Every game freezes. And he bought it two months ago.

    It's true Eagle Eye, Win XP doesn't have DOS! The DOS prompt that you see in the start menu is only a DOS emulator! (i know that you cant believe it, but it's really so). But you can still load the old true DOS using a boot disk.

    Well, im downloading XP right now!
