XP pre-RC1 upgrade to RC1
dacris
I just wanna know if it's ok to upgrade an older pre-RC1 build of XP to RC1. I heard that it's not recommended, but how bad can such an upgrade really be?? I don't feel like starting from scratch all over again and I would like to upgrade to the RTM from RC1/2 if possible, not do a clean install again.

AMD 760MP chipset...
Brian Frank
I'm wondering what everyone thinks about the 760MP chipset, now that Tyan's is out and MSI/Microstar has one on the way. I'm gonna say it looks cool, but also take it with a grain of salt. This is AMD's first SMP chipset, so it would be wise to remeber that the first try is not always the best.

Hi Guys, Recently I was looking at the screenshots of Windows XP. I noticed that the scrollbars in Internet Explorer are not skinned and are plain. Though, this is a very small issue but, I believe consistency in UI is very important.

2495, anyone?
Seldzar
Anyone got 2495? I tell ya it's not much use to me since you now have to activate before you can even log on. You can still get into the os via safemode with command prompt but replacing winlogon from 2481 isn't the solution.
