Using XP with new install?
AMD Athlon II X3
MSI 980 mobo
DDR3 memory
can't imagine other peripherals would matter, but will have a sata hd,
dvd burner, pci modem and old pci soundblaster if I can make it work.
Have both XP and Win 7 disks. Most of my programs are 5+ years old, and
made for XP. Still partial to XP after using both.
Will be a replacement for 8 yo desktop.
Most stressful task will be streaming online video to a HDTV.
What I've read seems XP drivers are still pretty much included and not
difficult to install.
Pointers on above ponderings appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
