A much better solution.
Don't use XP.

A little late now to say "don't use XP", huh? I think the problem is solved though, after a few tweaks here and there. Hopefully. Oh, and for the record, I have crashed windows XP using WordPerfect suite 10 alone (waits for the cheers of accomplishment)
Oh, and I thought that WinME was quite buggy also? I recall, or thought I recall numerous complaints and reports on it's apparent instability.
Windows 98 isn't much of a prize either. I've used that for the past 3 years. Not exactly a fun system. I have crashed it at least once a day. Sometmies more depending on what I'm doing.

BSOD's have nothing to do with DOS, btw.
Learned Linux. Liked command-line interface. Didn't like Windows-style shells.

With Mac OS X...
I think you'll find that that is one piece of software that truly is crash-free. (And it's also the original graphic design style that XP ripped off of.)

And then there's the problem that 98% of the world uses PCs and Windows. But he, stand alone. Stand tall. Stand proud. Be confused at work.
Michael: InterActual DVD isn't actually a DVD player, it's a front end. It will use your WinDVD software. But that's okay, cause WinDVD is good.
" Microsoft has always programmed all of its copies of Windows to fuck up with one thing or another, and then charge people money for tech support to tell them what's wrong and how to fix it. It's a conspiracy that's been going on since the earliest days of Windows 95, to increase Microsoft's profits."
Yes. There are also subliminal messages hidden into the Start menu telling you to kill all Jews and Gypsies, and to then donate the unused organs to Bill Gates.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
