Windows XP should be renamed Windows Beta since it really is so different, I've heard complaints left n' right about how some old games don't work, and other shit. I really didn't have a prob with it, but a week ago it crashed, and I had to reinstall all my shit, and the video card wasn't one of them cuz MoHAA doesn't work. Well, I really hope Microsoft does something.
I'm running xp and you guys will be happy to know that when the new service pack is released it will have some compatibilities fixes so you can play some of the older games.
Autokick should have no problem with XP I run in on a XP terminal server without a problem.
give us some details on what your having problems with and maybe we can help
