The programmers are moving away from the older operating systems like 98 & ME. Not to mention Windows Longhorn will be released next year.

So I guess if your going to run the autos you will need to upgrade at some point. BTW, XP upgrade cd's are on Amazon for under $80

Because the upgrade cd is cheaper than the full version of XP. I never said you were a pain. I am simply informing you of the facts.

Upgrading to XP is quite easy and cost me $80.00 --well worth the price--I Am waiting for a new OS before I  buy another Comp.--My luck I bought an ME comp 2 months before XP came out---but it all worked out ok--my brother-in-law is a programmer and he helped me fine tune my upgrade--lucky me O0

See tghat is my point , fine tune the upgrade of XP,,,,,Because it is running off the Me platform,,microsoft should have just let us have the fix for ME,, they know it was junk.... But i did not ,, and did not know that Xp was on the way out , Got my comp 3 months before XP come out....So now i got some thinking to do,,, turn it some credit card points for a $50,00 best buy gift card , and purchase XP upgrade ???? HMMMMMMM,,,Or wait till new OS comes out?????Also if i ever have to reformatt ,,, Then i gotta re-do the XP disc to,, Right?

it wont be till sometime in 2006 that longhorn comes out and its been pushed back may times.........i would go ahead and update to windows xp . its gonna be ok for a few more years anyway.......i personally do not liked upgrades, if it were me i would reformat the hard drive and do a full install. might cost more but works better and less problems in the long run........
