Get with the times gramps. Support for XP ended like a year ago, meaning no more updates or bug fixes.

I can understand 7 (it's pretty good, but XP is more comfy), but moving up to 8? Kek
>>
Why aren't you using a Mac? Are you poor?
>>
>>287226090
8 is a better 7, just install a custom start menu and you're set.
>>
>>287225914
Using the word newfags and thinking XP has no bugs just flagged yourself as either underage or someone who doesn't know anything about computers.

well its not. the slightly better performance can't make up for its shit look.
>>
>>287227602
If you don't like its look then sure, it's not for you, but by any objective measure 8 is better than 7 or at least equal to.
>>
>>287225387
XP was excellent but it really time to let it go.

There's no hope left.

so? like you ever needed support.
by them there will probably be a Win11 because 10 looks like ass.

What are you saying?
>>
>>287228072

When Microsoft talks about ending support for an operating system they are talking about updates/bug fixes/security patches/etc and not just tech support.

Ok.
>>
>>287228229
I know. The support end dates are always extended for years on out because a lot of people still use older OS.
>>
>>287228352
just make a dual boot
win98 and win7
golden for games
>>
>>287225387
Not using 8.1

Why even XP, just install 98.
>>
>>287227138
No, the performance is way better but there are bugs and some features are taken in order to push the ugly metro apps.

8.1 however, with some tweaks is better than 7

aren't they on like windows 10 now?

there's kinda no point in upgrading your OS unless you're one of those guys that only wants to play console ports in the best graphics possible.

idk why they flooded the windows market with new OSes. everyone is going to stick with 7.
>>
>>287228449
I guess I should have clarified that I was talking about 8.1 and not 8 but who the hell uses 8.0?
>>
>>287225387
Because it it requires at least DirectX10

Because I'm fucking poor.

I also don't trust a fucking botnet release of windows, so I don't torrent/dl editions.

Maybe I'll just use Linux after. Configuring linux distros and learning commands sounds more fun than video games anyway, and I prefer consoles for being simple plug-and-play reliable machines
>>
>>287228361
And most importantly. To fix the security vulnerabilities that pops up.
>>
>>287228518
I always update OSes on release because I really like learned new ones and comparing them. I'm using 8.1 now and its my favorite so far.
>>
>>287228572
Softicle has clean ISOs, the rest is up to you.
>>
>>287228534
I do. It wasn't bad but I wish I installed 8.1 from the first time.
>>
>>287228673
I'm always wait till 1 service pack.

xp does not have enough ram support.
>>
>>287228973
Fairly certain there is a x64 version of XP around.

I was actually thinking of installing XP the other day for old games before I realized I could just use Wine.
>>
>>287228973
I have 6 gigs of ram in xp and never had a reason to have that much, ever.
>>
>>287229198
Yeah well, obviously the OP isn't having this problem with games made 10 years ago.
>>
>>287229184
It is very crippled version.

>>287229198
And OS allowing only 3,5Gb to use.
Wow, retards.
>>
>>287229198
>mfw when I have 2
>>
Sure, I'll still use XP if I actually wanted every known virus under the sun and no updates or fixes.
>>
>>287229198
Game devs want you to have at least 8gb these day.

Not sure why since they always run fine with just 4 though.
>>
I just wish Win 8.1 had the classics theme.
Fuck, it's just so damn comfortable to use.
>>
>>287229283
actually xp64 can use up to 128gb of ram
>>
>>287229424
Because they're liars. Many games that have those requirements turned out needs lower amount of ram (like watch dogs or COD Ghost)
>>
>>287229668

Whats the point of using it in 2015?

No drivers
No Aero
No updates
No DirectX

Botnet owners.
>>
>>287229807
We're at the point that XP has higher support than both win7 and 8.1, unless you want the best current graphics. Microsoft really needs to stick with 1 os so I could finally have a reason to upgrade.
