You can't teach a new mother new tricks

It took over a day. Windoze XP refused to go on my new mobo. I gave up and put WinMe on it and it's working like a charm. 2GHz of grunt. I know I'll look back on that comment in years to come and laugh at what I used to think was fast.

I still haven't given up hope of getting XP running on it. I'm sure Asus tech-support will mail me any day now, answering my query with some little wrinkle that I have to set in the bios to make XP install smoothly. Any day.
