Got xp through a chkdsk /r and 2 normal boots. Haven't tried running apps yet but all appears to be running normally. Fingers crossed.

Fortunately you won't have to reboot your computer after this is patched, because I doubt MS will offer a patch:

So I had a go with Photoshop, Chrome and Dead Island. All seems to be running tick·et·y-boo

Firstly, "diet coke"!?! Fuck you! :@

Secondly, what on earth is it you think the outcome of my daily fare to be?

Well yeah, that was kinda exhausting having that happen every night, then one day I realised I could stop putting a pack of mints on my pizzas and by strange coincidence it hasn't reoccurred since.

That's what he used to have - I can only assume that the minty taste doesn't do it for him anymore and he's moved onto harder herbs. Oregano, basil and dill could all be contenders. Unless he's a ponce and goes in for saffron.

The problem isn't usually the spec, it's the amount of shite that's been installed unfortunately. All the adware, spyware, toolbars. The programs that you installed but forgot to uninstall that for some reason feel the need to run on boot and have a stupid tray icon, that stuff.

Also, Chrome, fucking Chrome. I really need to move away from Chrome. No matter what OS I use it just eats all the RAM. I must admit I often have loads of tabs open but even when you shut them it struggles to give the RAM back. Greedy fucker.

I keep my xp installations pretty lean. AV, firewall (not Windows own), slipstreamed sp3 and no other patches or updates (which they stopped issuing a while ago anyway). I very rarely use it for random interwebs stuff, just testing web development projects from my servers, games (mainly steam these days) and Photoshop 6. Never for email.

Agreed about Chrome. They really need to fix the memory management.

All's good with me, except tarragon. I bloody hate it because it makes everything taste of soap. Which is a pity really, since i rather liked Tarragon.
