Default Re: OT - RAM utilities -> XP sucks? -> ME is worse?

2000 will run games and supports DX8.1, but it has VERY limited peripheral support. If a game works better with a wheel, joystick, or gamepad, you can forget running it on 2000. That is one of the main differences between 2000 and XP. XP supports most of the latest gaming peripherals. On my XP system, for example, I have a Force Feedback Racing wheel, FF joystick, and a FF gamepad, and all of them work excellently with games that support them. Rogue Sqadron, for instance is very enjoyable when you can feel the missile hit to your X-Wing while chasing down a Tie Bomber.
