Well...I upgraded my comp over the weekend from 98se to XP Home and it's running better than ever. I was surprised how well it identified all my hardware and Uru:

Just make sure when you run Service Pack 2, to close all other programs, turn off any screen savers, hybernation and stand by, anything that may interupt the install because on a fast machine the innitial install takes approx. 45 minutes. it could be longer on a slower machine. also as a side note, SP2 enables the windows firewall by default, so if you have problems with any virus software updating or any network utility not working correctly, that would be a good place to start trouble shooting. secondly, the NTFS file system is the better and faster one. I don't recommend compression as i have had problems with hard drive crashes when I enabled it. just remember that any FAT or FAT32 file allocation table dependant operating system will not be able to see the NTFS partition without XP running to share it.
