Anyway, that didnt bother me
After it installed i tried to connect to the net for Windows Update, My
Modem (WITH XP DRIVER) Would not work! i tryed the Window standard drivers,
but didnt work.
I am now back using WIN 98 FOR GOOD!
XP SUCKS BIG TIME

I'm in the middle of the process myself, I've installed
the upgrade on a standard PC, it has hung without
completing. I've no operating system now, I'm in he
process of getting rid of XP and back to 98. I don't
particularly want to have to reformat the hard drive but
who knows...
XP SUCKS BIG TIME ...
Best wishes

XP isn`t any good when you upgrade, but a clean install
works ok, it even detects my video and soundcards with
almost the latest drivers(it had detonater 12 when i just
downloaded detonater 11 )

AT&T @home tech support I would have to switch from USB Ethernet Adapter to
NIC card because the original @home adapter was outmoded, as it turned out
tech that came to the house installed a new Adaptec 10/100 USB Ethernet
Adapter. now the system flies.
I did an upgrade, other then the Internet connection had to reinstall SBLive
5.1 & SB Annihilator video card software. Two items need fixing, Logitech
Wingman Joystick, and SBWeb cam 3. Can't seem to get them working, but
system is stable installation was long but smooth and no crashes even some
programs I've had for years respond without a hiccup.

I was going to wait six months before upgrading so drivers have time to come
out and stablelize. But I found out my hardware had dcrivers so I went
ahead and did it. So far, so good. Now, give me a week and I may back here
with a different story. ;)
Later,

Yeah. I am about to do that with Roxio. Tomorrow will be
one week that XP has been available at retail and over a
month pre-installed and Roxio has not come out with an XP
upgrade for EZ Cd Creator Platinum! Nero and Clone CD are
looking better and better to me right now.

The patch will, no doubt, resolve the "Direct CD" problem, but "Take Two" is
dead, forget about it....
