ok i have a pc as u already know

pentium 4
(2.60ghz)

1.24 gb ram


intel 845g vedio card inbuilt (64 mb )

i am using windows 7 home basic on it
but i liked xp

which should i prefer xp or 7 ? ? ?

i also try ed windows8 it was good but i wasnt able to play games

so 7 or xp please reply !

both are giving great performance but i cant choose one :!

both, dual boot them

i would say 7, but i would also say windows8 is shite

actually if ur running 40 gb hardrive

u wouldnt like dual boot !

windows xp rocks but it looks sucks

windows 7 rocks but i dont like uac and some crap


windows 8 rocks in almost everything like booting up etc !

but with it i cant run games on it

buts its aero support is also quite good

windows 8 consumer preveiw on pentium 4 - YouTube

here it is on my pc


so just tell me xp or 7

have you considered linux

i dont know how you can use xp after using 7, and i dont know how you can use 8 full stop, but if you like them go for it, xp will give you more hdd space to play with, and win8 will be developing quick, i just cant understand how you can use it properly on a desktop without a start menu, for me if the choice was between xp, linux or win8 i would be scratching my head, win7 or even vista added to the list and theres no contest, but thats me, this is the kind of question you should ignore other peoples views and go with your gut feeling

While I enjoy XP I encourage folks to move to Windows 7. XP is being slowly abandoned by Microsoft as far as support and soon updates for it will not be offered or available. It is time to move forward.

in all honesty no more updates might be the best thing thats ever happened to it, most of the problems i have had using it were caused by updates

The solution to your problem is relatively simple - when I see a couple of pairs of shoes and can't make up my mind which ones to buy - I buy both pairs.... and let the bank manager complain later... lol.

This solution may not suit your pocket, but it would negate your issue... Either that or get a larger hdd and partition it.... and dual boot.

the thing is i previously dual booted

and i never logged in 7

every day i used xp




so dual booting for me is a waste of space

if u had my computer would u go for xp or 7

only one of them !

which one would u choose

i never used xp with updating

it took large hardrive space

and slowed pc

i really dont care about updates
