    Just a couple of points.

    Xp mode was designed to allow the running of legacy business type applications not games.

    It uses an emulated graphics card not the actual hardware on the system. The resolution is adequate for these applications but not for most games.

    I didn't know it didn't use the system hardware, but I did wonder about this. My games are the "geezer" type, not available much anymore... word, puzzle, MahJong, Hoyle type games, not the high intensity, graphic games. Would that make a difference I hope? :)

    Thanks for the response...

    Probably not. Those should all run o.k. imho. As long as you're not wanting to run Call of Duty lol.
