Well I decided to upgrade my recently built machine from Win98 to XP Pro. Setup encountered 1 hitch in needing RAID drivers although the friggin OS tells me later that the drivers I have are newer than what it has. Why stop the setup without the drivers if you already have them??
Anyway, that was it. Dual boot and all. 2 issues arose after the install. 1) Can't see the server and 2). Playing games for an undetermined time results in a Stop x0A. Oh joy!!
1). Haven't fixed it yet, altho I did map a drive to \\192.168.244.129 (server address). Never could find \\server or \\Server or \\SERVER. I did install NetBui and made sure I was in the right group, etc.
2). This one got me for quite some time. I checked and rechecked every driver I had to make sure they were all signed or certified by Microsoft. It ended up being fixed when I flashed a new BIOS or when I reset all memory tweaks to safe. No more Stop errors:-) Seems XP is a bit twitchy when it comes to overclocking (hmmm....I wonder if Intel paid Microsoft to put a governor on AMD).
Windows 98 has no problems whatsoever with me tweaking the BIOS. I even tweaked my Ti500 card to exceed the new geForce 4! I can't install Leadtek's new XP utility, so there goes tweaking the video card for now.
