Is that so? Then there may yet be hope...I slipstreamed the latest SP3 on my main computer which is currently running Vista. I'll have to dig up a computer that still has XP on it to do this then? The numbers are dwindling since I had to install Vista on this machine to get it working. And it sucks, mainly because as an older system, it has sound and video card driver issues, and Aero does NOT work under any circumstances. Thanks, by the way.
