I have Win XP Pro SP1 on 32bit File system. Most games installed and play without any problems. My vendor told me not to use NTFS if I want to play games. Appearance ? Non-classic. XP is supposed to support games. So--what are your problems ? Cannot/Doesn't install ? Doesn't play ? Any error messages? Example of games you are having problems with ?
I am having problems with installing games on my laptop which has XP professional. I have been told by a gamer that it is not possible to install games on this as it is meant for work-related use - not at all sure I believe that. He also said that he has been told by a retailer of pc games that you can install games if you change the appearance from XP to classic - does any of this make sense to anyone out there? Are there games available for use with XP? Any help gratefully received.
