  1. did I? I thought I said that all the programs I use don't seem to be XP-only, just 2000/XP, apart from 1 or 2 which I can't remember. As far as I know, companies still release software for 2000/XP. (However, XP is winning 4 votes to none for every other, so )
  2. OK, so it's down to: - nlited win2k pro - nlited xp pro I'll add a poll, I guess
  3. OK so 2003 is basically out of the picture. I don't really care much for the themes engine, I mean it's nice but I in no way need it at all. Also, none of the games I play require XP. So, I'm still not sure.
  4. Indeed, I just added 2003 because I've heard people say for them it's more stable, secure etc.
  5. (note: I'm posting here because I cannot see a better place for it to go, plus I am intending to use nLite for the install. Please tell me if this is the wrong forum.) So I'm going to replace this creaky XP install with something else. Notes: I occasionally game, nothing very recent, I can get all of the games I'd want to play running on any of the systems. Now, I'm going for the lightest system, but I'd also like it to work with all recent programs. I seem to remember some programs require XP only and lock out 2000, but I can't name any off the top of my head that do. Probably nothing important. I am technically proficient (with both unix-alikes and Windows) so ease-of-use doesn't really come into play, I'm just looking for a really fast, secure and stable system that I have the most control over. Now, I am leaning away from XP because 2000 and 2003 seem to give more control by default. However, I am willing to revise that opinion as I have not used nLite-based installs before. Any suggestions would be really helpful. I can supply more information if needed. Thanks in advance.
