RE: Installing Windows XP
Well, initally upon installation everything worked fine. When I tried to process an email turn it went well until I had to find the file I had made in game and wanted to return to my opponent. Basically it wasnt there. After a thorough search I found that windows vista installs the game slightly differently than XP with the PBEM & Saved Games sections being sperated to another file called Compatibles. So I linked a short cut to it and placed it on my desktop. So its working very well now with my only issue is the fact that I changed my ATI card to an Nvidia one so I could get fog graphics and now they arent displayed in Vsta despie installing the latest drivers.

So yeah I recommend Vista... but it will take a little getting used to. And it does seem faster at processing turns etc.
