Also, set your colors to high 16 bit or even better to 256 unless you have a reason to do otherwise. I don't think you will notice a difference between 16 bit and 24 bit and will save even more memory. Another tip you can do is to make sure you don't have any useless junk programs running in the background.

Re: [LIB] XP is really great!!

The video chip inside L1x0 is optimized to operate in 16-bit mode. If you play any kind of video on it, you will see the big difference. In 16-bit color mode, I can play 320x200 full screen VCD videos smoothly. In 24-bit mode, the video gets really choppy. - Original Message - From: "Pres Waterman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Libretto" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 20, 2002 1:02 PM Subject: Re: [LIB] XP is really great!!

Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2002 13:13:36 -0500 From: "Lawrence Young" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [LIB] XP is really great!! You missed my point completely. Yes, you should select different directories for Win98 OS and WinXP OS. However, a lot of stuff like data access files, IE files and others are installed into "Program Files" folder and you don't get chance to specify a different folder name. Windows will always install them on to the "Program Files" folder the same partition your OS is installed. And the same files for 98 and XP are not compatible. You can not install any 9x OS after NT/2000/XP install because they don't support multi-boot. - Original Message - From: "Pres Waterman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Libretto" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 20, 2002 12:48 PM Subject: Re: [LIB] XP is really great!!
