Has anyone had any problems with Windows Me?

I've had several fatal problems with it,I've had to
uninstall it.

I've got a Windows Xp Pro disk today,is it any good?
Should I install it?
At the moment I've got '98....

Well,

Win Me is a load of rubbish. everyday my pc crashed severall
times, I went insane.

I am currently using Xp pro and am not complaining. Never
crashes and is not too slow or so.

As long as you can run every program you need under Xp i'd
say go for that one, but '98 isn't bad either.

As it is windows there will be problems.

But Xp pro is a very good one (as far as my experience goes
that is).

I hated winME. Go if you don't need FAT32 then go with
Win2K or WinXP. Both are great. I personally liked a few
things in Win2k more, but XP is more stable. If you have
apps that don't like the winxp shit go with 98se.

XP Pro is good stuff. No more blue screens (at least I never
had them), and of course win32's trusty powerful security,
network and file sharing options. Don't even go there unless
you have at least 256 MB RAM though. I used to run XP on my
128 MB system, but it's much much better now that it's
upgraded to 384 MB :D

I have 512mb of ram with XP pro and I still need more. the
problem is that 512mb ddr ram chips are expensive.

Don't bother. WinXP doesn't use more than 512 MB RAM.
Perhaps you need a faster CPU??

My cpu is mega old....I don't have any idea as to find out
how many RAM it has,because I know nothing about computers.

I'm running a 2.4ghz pentium IV. I just need more ram
becuase I do a lot of video editing and run a million
prgrams at once.
