regarding win XP-- I use it. it's great. regarding software microsoft flight sim 2000 works fine! So does all MODERN Chessbase engines. Some of the older (16 bit ) chess engines are problematic in the new interface but you can run them in their original interfaces fine. What doesn't work...my old soundcard from Phillips Audio with Yamaha Engine... Microsoft Motorcross madness 2.... the gameport on my sound card doesn't work...MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A USB JOYSTICK!!! my microsoft gamepad 'freestyle pro' doesn't work ( a pity, every button had keyboard shortcut for my database searches and viewing games.) Findout how old your Bios on your motherboard is( and If it is upgradable through software,etc.). Windows SE is about five years old. Just because this works for us well, I won't assume you'll have the same results. -marc On June 17, 2003 at 02:08:49, Georg Langrath wrote: >I have MS Flight Simulator and Frityz 7.
