clonk Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 I'd recommend Windows 3.11 for Workgroups! It has a 'graphical user interface' and you can click on 'icons' to make a program run in a 'window!' Cool Stuff! Check out the screenshot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eth3l Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Windows 3.0, 3.11 cited above has networking features you might not need in regualr gameplay. Plus, 3.11 is using newer untested technology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Elі Subscriber² Posted March 24, 2004 Subscriber² Share Posted March 24, 2004 Definitely Windows XP man, You are using the best already, If you are having issues then check and make sure you have enough RAM and that your PC is not full spy ware and things like too many programs starting up at boot time etc. Good luck.

SickWorm Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 I came a little late, but what is the meaning of this post?? You give as a PC with great specs and you ask what OS should you install on your PC! It's clear enough that XP is the most stable Windows OS ever... :whistle: But If I were you I would install SuSe! :happy: (j/k) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
