You may wish to consider Writelog as an alternative to CT (I have both by the way !!).
It is perfectly stable under Windows XP Pro as it is with all Windows platforms from Win 95 upwards. I consider myself a "serious" contester and regularly have 2.5k QSO's upwards. It has never let me down and offers a lot more different contest support than CT - very helpful when you are not stateside but the DX side - several 3rd party sites offer additional contest files totally FREE. It also produces very helpful graphs and exports the contest log in .adif format for easy importing into DX4WIN. Suffice to say I'm impressed and have not even tried CT since. Worth a visit to their homepage - oh the technical support is first class also (immediate return of email by Ron K5DJ). I have no association to this program but if I am happy with any product I WILL let others know about it ..... same holds true if I buy a Lemon lol Good luck, Steve B ZC4BS ZC40BS ZC4BBS ZD8SB N5ZFR and now G4KIV
