Read it and Tom's. The Northwood is an improvement but not that much. My XP 1800+ is fine for me and fast as f00k. And the only time the system has ever gone down is when Empire Earth has crashed and I believe that's a problem with the Sound Card (an Audigy.)

 

[old.mike15]

Which audigy do u have? (mp3...gamer...platinum...etc.)

 

[Wij]

OEM

Its:

OEM
Player
Plat
Plat ex

 

[old.mike15]

that makes more sense keep forgetting about the diff countries and such. All thats diff is the OEM and Player instead of gamer and mp3.
