This is definitely true, and especially so for cross-kernel upgrades. You went from a Win9x-kernel version of Windows (WinME) to a WinNT- kernel version of Windows, and that is generally going to be very bad news. Your story about the school computers is yet another *driver* support horror story. If the hardware makers do not make drivers for WinXP that work, that is hardly MS's fault, is it? Placing the blame in the proper place certainly doesn't solve the problem for you, but if you are complaining to MS about it, you'll get nowhere as it is always the responsibility of the hardward manufacturers to decide whether or not to create drivers for a new OS. -- David W.
