Software Reviews of Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition FULL VERSION with SP2
Customer Review: Straightforward, but...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a 2-year-old computer from a co-worker, and I wanted to be able to run some recent computer games on it. The computer as purchased did not have a legal copy of an operating system on it. I was tempted to buy VISTA, but it turns out that recent computer games DON'T RUN ON VISTA! Therefore I needed to buy the next-to-most recent version of Windows. Hence XP. The price on Amazon was competitive, and it installed properly. The only hitch is that the newly-installed XP did not recognize the built-in audio/speaker port of the PC hardware, so I had to also buy a sound card, so that I would have the drivers to install (the purchased PC did not come with the drivers). I then purchased a wireless networking card, and that was NOT easy to install. I do not know if the difficulty (which I eventually overcame) was dueto the fact that I installed a disconnected version of XP (as opposed to buying a new PC with XP properly pre-installed), or if the problem were due to the nature of the wierless card driver installation software. In any case, the XP software as purchased from Amazon works.Customer Review: WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION

Are these reviews on the product or on the seller. I know what I want, I only want to know if the seller is reputable.Customer Review: Poor results running XP from Boot Camp
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased XP Home to use on my MAC with Boot Camp, so that I could use applications only available on Internet Explorer. The loading of XP and the set up took some time, but went well. However, Internet Explorer runs very slow off of Boot Camp and its impossible to be productive. So this was a waste of money from my standpoint. Other Windows based applications might work OK, but I'm probably better off purchasing a cheap stand alone PC to run the few Internet Explorer based applications I need.Customer Review: It works

This full version for computers without Windows was used to convert the OEM version to run on a virtual machine. The software works, but Microsoft's marketing policies .....
