Hi Andy, I am sorry for the trouble you have had with Windows XP.
I suggest that you use Linux, as FreeBSD really is not targeted at people who want to use graphical user interfaces. The linux developers really have been trying to make a valuable replacement for Windows, as they somehow have experienced the same issues with Windows (And Microsoft products in general) that you have. One Linux distribution in particular that I think you might like, is Ubuntu. You can download it at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/, or order a CD (Free shipping, free CD, you pay nothing).
