i dont completely get the prob. but r u basically saying that applications take ages to minimise and sorta look like they've frozen in the background?

im guessing that ur processor is too slow for XP...although it could be solved by getting more ram. 512 should do it. winxp is a resource hog unless u hav a fast pc. then its fast. i

I've actually installed WinXP Pro on my Sister's K62-450, 128mb ram and a TNT2 M64 Card and it's faster than Win98 :)

I only installed it for a laugh after Windows 98 starting crashing constantly even after reformatting - at the moment I have turned off a little of the XP eye candy (no difference in asthetics unless you look hard though) and I have also turned off all uneeded background services.

this sometimes happens with me with IE, like if i go to a site and IE won't connect and starts to time.. just hit control+alt+delete and wait a little bit for it to kill it.

i also understand what you mean about overlapping progs showing in the IE window, since it won't minimize or refresh the application when timing..

i've got 768 ram, on a 1.05 athlon.. i think its just a flaw in XP or something, nothing to worry about really though

Windows XP sux

I don't like Windows XP. Because I didn't trust it completly at first I did a complete Install with Dual Boot for Win98 and WinXP Pro. When I finished installing XP the first time I booted XP it got stuck with my LAN settings, My pc was totally crashed. After it I got it finally to work but now as soon as I insert my internet cable into the Hub the intnernet works for about 2 minutes and then my pc reboots itsself automatically So if anyone could help me with this prob it would be great. I also got a few other problems with my printer and stuff. But I don't care about that. (I also updated my BIOS !)

Go to Start>Run and type in eventvwr.msc

Now check Application and System sections, and see if what error entries are in both. This will in most cases narrow down exactly what problem you are having, search for that problem in Google and you have a fix.

I take it you ran the compatability test before upgrading though? I have now upgraded two systems with XP with no problems whatsoever - indeed neither of them have crashed yet either!
