Great Robert! You were smart to wait until it was fixed!

Really though, overall, I think XP Pro is the best version of Windows yet. Second best for me was 98SE, third was WFWG 3.11 - remember that one?

Enjoy!

WFWG 3.11, without a doubt the most stable Windows ever.

Compared to 95 and later it was a PITA to install hardware and drivers, but once you did they never crashed. I got pretty good at digging thru the .ini and .sys files and tweeking that sucker

Why would XP Pro install programs faster? Same installer package right? 3.1
How old was your XP Home install?
