Yeah, RedHat10 is now out (or has been for a while)...

I just installed XP, 2003 Server and RH10 on a triple boot computer...they all lived happily ever after...

The RH10 also gave me the grub installer that allows you to choose between the OS you want to use...so if someone wants to play around with it and still keep their current OS its a viable option...

what is your computer doing

i may be new to somethings but windows xp and 98 are my specialty. is your computer just slow, has trouble getting on the internet, error messages, etc. i can help you fix it with just knowing what the symptoms are. microsoft does offer a free complete download of windows xp operating system or boot disk on their website but it wont be found my a basic search. most generally it is just minor clean up that needs to be done. generally your registry rarely has to be cleaned. if necessary i have a few programs that are free and highly recommended by my brother who works for microsoft as a software programmer.

im happy I did what I done...I got back a bunch of programs that came with the system that I forgot I once had. Other programs work as they are supposed to....and most importantly I got rid of 5 years worth of cumulative junk I only used once then forgot about etc...
Ive got all my photos loaded onto a web album too so I dont have to worry about loosing them...since I have a hard time keeping track of stuff, and dont have to worry about my comp crashing and loosing them all.
