SLeeZeCoRe Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 I use TinyXP Pro for gaming, 600mb install and uses almost no RAM whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Use nLite to make a slim version from your own XP system ?http://www.nliteos.com/nlite.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrrsx2006 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I use TinyXP and it is pretty simple, uses very little resources so I would definitely recommend that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hb_Kai Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 can you have both on the same computer?if so how?this sounds very interesting lolYou can have two operating systems installed on your PC by installing each to a seperate parition and dual-boot them.Yon,Haven't they discontinued Windows NT? Apparently that was good for gaming. if they haven't anyway. :lol: But last I heard they were trying to force XP on to all NT users via the Windows Automatic Update.

Hb_Kai Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I've asked some people about this and the majority of them have informed me that they would recommend 64bit Windows XP for gaming. Hope it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think that NT would be horrible for gaming - I doubt derict X 9 would even run on that. I could be wrong though - never tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win2k, XP, Vista and 7 are all built on the NT kernel. They just stopped branding it NT, but it's still the same thing really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
