Ah well XP.......
I had the intention of using it as my primary OS over 2K
I even thought I had it under controll .
Had it looking normal, had it sort of behaving normall......not doing things by itself I never asked it to do....
Went for the SP2 and that's where it all went wrong.
After the installation of SP2 my comp went into a bootloop... starting up shutting down, and so on.
Tried all the fixes even completely disableled the buffer overflow thingy.
To no avail.
XP suggests I have bad RAM....

Went back to a date before SP2 with system restore.
But the dammage is done, XP is instable it freezes when I run a few things at the same time.
(wich ideed looks like having bad ram)

BUT Win2K is running like a charm on the same computer with the same RAM.
I have Phex running, I download from, and browse newsgroups.
Browse the www with Firefox.
Listen to music or watch Video and all at the same time.
No problems at all with Win2K !!
