Win Xp/7

by kreatiir • 1 Sep 2011, 16:28 • Journals
Hi,

I'm thinking about formatting my Bootcamp drive to put Win Xp on it.
Any suggestions about that?

Is it worth (for Enemy territory) to go back to Windows Xp?
I'm thinking about boosting performance.

Thx in advance

Depends on your computer.
One of the main problems about win7 is that it's being updated quite often, which, if you have a 16G drive like me is not enough and you need to work it out every month.
I used XP b4 7 and tbh, I still prefer it, it was quite stable and didn't interfere with ET.
My suggestion: go back to WinXP.

Remember winxp only recognizes 3 gb RAM (32 bit). Personal experience: Installing 64 bit XP on Bootcamp was a pain in the ass, drivers were not supported since I didn't had Service Pack 2 and this and that. Ugh...

I play with Windows XP and it works fine. I rarely have any problems.
And if I do discover a problem its pretty easy to fix.
