I got this link as part of a newsletter I'm subscribed to. It might be of interest to some of you Windows XP folk.

Nice link, I'll have to spend a bit of time on that some day...
TalkingOctopus:
Nice...now I gotta see if this will make XP more usable on an old 600 mHz Athlon. It is really struggling right now! Hopefully, it can be sped up.
wboy:
Great link there!

Are you serious? I got XP running on a spare machine super fast.. (not for MAME.. but rather just word processing, internet and photoshop). The box is a 500 Mhz P3 with 500MB of RAM!
And it FLIES!!! Just turn off all the eye candy (i.e. revert back to the '95 look) + turn off services you don't use and see how fast it can go!
