Author Topic: Windows XP - Who still uses it?  (Read 3059 times)

oh god, i seriously hope nobody votes "pre-xp windows"
i have a a windows ME still in perfect, working condition. it can run runescape on the lowest setting and flash games from kongregate.

I still use XP but only because my computer is ancient :<

according to my mom "everyone still uses windows xp it's popular not everyone has that other crap windows 7"

she also thinks closing the tab I browse the forums on will magically make my computer run faster

I didn't, but we have an ancient computer in our basement that runs on '98.
It works pretty well actually.

Is it bad that I still had 98 when Windows 7 just came out?

it's those animated avatars maaan

Implying that looking fancy is bad.

Anyway, my main computer uses Vista. It's due for a format, just getting a bit clusterforgeted, so I'll install 7 afterwards. I have a copy of Vista Ultimate that I haven't even used yet, lying next to me. IDK why I bought it.
My other main computers use XP because both of their motherboards are from the ASUS K8N/A8N lineup and have real difficulty running Vista/7, unless you flash the BIOS, which I have, but it never seems to work. It'll say SUCCESS or whatever, then next boot it's back to BIOS V1.
i like stuff looking simple

get W7 and turn off aero
if W7 can do that
otherwise just switch to the Windows Classic theme
I use Windows Classic on my XP
it looks pretty sharp if you ask me

Still using XP. Can't wait to get rid of it.

i have no money

I have a super old laptop next to me on which I installed XP. It runs super slow and takes about 5 minutes to open Firefox, and never stops stuttering. :)
I didn't think it was that much of a step up from 98 to XP.

Then no, not really.

All we do is use it for reading old floppy disks, and storing things important.
