Re: OT - RAM utilities -> XP sucks? -> ME is worse?
That's cause fisher price XP has no DOS kernal. 
99% of games I have tried to run on 2000 have run with no problems. |

Not one of those games uses DOS  Two of them use DirectX, actually.

Re: OT - RAM utilities -> XP sucks? -> ME is worse?
The best gaming platform remains Win98SE period. Greatest compatability with games and gaming peripherals. Yeah, it is not as stable as XP or 2000, but for a gaming only system it just works better.

I'd love to instal 98 on this laptop, but I doubt I could find the drivers to do it.

You can almost always find drivers directly from the chipset manufacturer, if not from the laptop maker. Before venturing into this avenue, write down all devices in device manager, then search for their respective Win98 drivers.

I almost never have problems running games under 2000.
