Additional Microsoft Windows XP Professional Upgrade [OLD VERSION] Information
|
MODEL- MS-CD71429WI VENDOR- MICROSOFT CORPORATION FEATURES- Windows XP Professional Operating System- Upgrade Version You can use this upgrade if you are upgrading from Windows 98/98 SE, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP Home Edition. Windows XP Professional integrates the strengths of Windows 2000 Professional, such as standards-based security, manageability, and reliability, with the best business features of Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition, such as Plug and Play, simplified user interface, and innovative support services. This combination creates the best desktop operating system for business. Whether your business deploys Windows XP Professional on a single computer or throughout a worldwide network, this new operating system increases your computing power while lowering cost of ownership for desktop computers. * The entirely new look of Windows XP is sure to grab lots of attention. The so-called Luna design--which youll see popping up in other products from Microsoft--has big icons, rounded dialog boxes, and bright, colorful backgrounds. The desktop has fewer icons, the Start menu and System Tray show only the applications you use most frequently, and commonly-accessed dialog boxes such as the Control Panel have been simplified. The overall effect is a less cluttered and easier to use OS. But for those

What Customers Say About Microsoft Windows XP Professional Upgrade [OLD VERSION]:
|
|
The best choice is to choose a full version of the product and enjoy the benefits of not being left with artifacts and leftover's of your previous operating system which can lead to instability in certain cases. Generally speaking, to get the best performance from any operating system a clean install of a full version is recommended. I would only buy this on a limited budget.
As much as I like Vista, and I do have Vista-64 on my media computer, I still like using XP-Pro on my work computer. It is solid as a concrete highway without fast running water under it (in other-words, it does have its vulnerabilities), but far better than any other windows product out there.
It required a volume licensing agreement which a stand alone user would not have.Apparently this company was trying to pull a fast one. The version of the software was an OEM version that was only valid when installed on a new computer direct from the manufacturer. Don't buy anything from these people.
Review not necessary, outstanding product. If you are running Home Edition, I would recommend upgrading to XP Pro, if you can afford it.
However this did not work for me]. Microsoft has not acknowledged the problem, produced a KB article or a fix for this yet. Remote desktop black/blank screen no login dialog box.I have used remote desktop on other machines & connections without problem but there is clearly a problem with many connections using the version in WindowsXP sp2. Concensus seems to think this is due to a poorly designed/implemented remote desktop protocol -- apparently it does not handle fragmented packets.[Some have found changing the MTU size from 1500 to 1400 using a third party tool fixes it for them. I bought this upgrade specifically to use remote desktop -- however it does not work. There are many reports on the web re. My suggestion is to avoid this until at least XP sp3 is issued.
