Hi

Is there any way of getting round the "no USB on WinNT" at all?

I don't care how good WinXP is, I'm not going to let it near my PC if I was paid £20,000.

Like I said, it'll use parts of the NT kernel for stability. I though WinXP had this emulation feature...run any win9x/NT app? Good work there then MicroSoft..

Ok, Microsoft do not refer to it directly as NT but other programs may do.

XP is actually NT 6 as Win2k was NT5. Although XP was never compared to NT like Win2k was.

I have vowed never to install WinXP on one of my boxen...I'd rather MS didn't know everything about my PC.. It's not just NT5, it's designed for home and office use (in different versions). I presume they've rewritten the entire kernel, keeping the best parts of the Win2k source and stealing plenty from Open Source along the way...probably found a loophole in the GPL.

would it not be better to upgrade to Win XP as thats basically NT 5 (i think it actually is) it seems to be good on my pc and only had 1 problem and that was with my grafix card drivers...

Cheers for the advice. The reason I was gonna use 6.2 is that it is more secure then 7.* and this machine will be perminatly connected to the net all day long. Although I am now looking at 7 as I have a firewall script for it.
