dude XP is way better than 98 - boots up faster and stuff.

Also has anyone had any problams going back to 98 and not knowing where everything is because they have been useing XP.

Cant wait for Vister Tho

[Kushan]

It's "Vista".
And as a beta tester for it, I can tell you that in it's current state, it's going to be one of the worst OS's Microsoft has ever released lol.

A lot of the features, to me, just seem to bloat the OS completely and slow it down.
All those nice looking windows and transparency effects mean that minimising or Maximising a window takes twice as long!
And believe me, my PC is certainly no slouch. They have a lot of work to do before it's release worthy.

Vista is pure evil, needing 2X more CPU and ramm than XP did,sure it will ahve more stuff in it..but thier not makeing it to run "better" just makeign it to do more things......
XP main problems that could ahve been fixed are compailty hell I would have loved to be able to go into a less stable capailty mode to run my 98 stuff in you forget that alot of 3D games came out on 98 and all the win emluators dont support 3D becuse of the horror that was/is DX.

Vista will be out either this year or at the start of next year and it will only be alil bit less buggy than the Beta...its truely is getting to the point where the crackers and coders have to fix windose's issues since M$ aint intrested in running a desent OS ><
speaking of Desent OS's how good is wine?

anyway I am off to try neomax 1.5 to test my loader

It seems the Slim loader 3 HATES the USB on my motherboard my mobo is a Abit NF7 S2G one of thier catchs ups on the last of the XP line,prehaps it dose not like the driver,Mobo,USB chipset combo?

I ahve a generic VIA usb2.0 firewire card and it seems to run fine now no BCOD or anythign no matter how many times I plug it in,if I try it on the other its about 50/50 it will either go BCOD or install right but when I go to format or soemthing it dosent do anythign like it crashs also I paad attetion tot eh SL3 and it's lights did not blink any when i tried to format or detect it,when it's drivers loaded correctly it works fine.

Is this device senitvie to bad USB or is it simply an odd driver/hardware issue? my USB Flash drive 256MB and USB CD/DVD boxs run fine.

[boblen]

are you useing the extended USB cable? if so try with out it.
Also if you can try it on different computers or a friends computer.

[ZippyDSMlee]

Mmmm not much friends where I am *L*
but I ahve tried it with and without the Exstention and it still is 50/50 on the mobos USB (front and back) but on the PCI USB card it runs fine 0-o never BSOD or anyhtign but loads up fine. in other words I have loaded soem GBA game sonto it and it works YAY! *L*
now I need another cart for NDS games :3

I tohught XP was goign to fix hardware oddiestis not run them underground LOL

[boblen]

I dont think it is a XP, Most people have a problam with the Slim Loader 3 and found that it worked on a PCI card.

It could also be a software thing.

It's generally the communications chipset on your particular motherboard that may not work well with the Slimloader.  A separate usb 2.0 pci card or usb 2.0 hub generally fixes this problem.  It's actually worse on laptops, as their usb ports aren't powered enough to even detect the slimloader device.
