XP 64bit - can install on SATA yet?

WRX_Rocky
I haven't tried the 64bit XP for some time now. I wonder, is there a way to install it on a SATA drive yet? Or is it still only IDE? And is there a newer version out? The last one I got had the basic NT/2000 style desktop.

I have just installed the following item. After installation I lost internet connection to my other computer. All I can see is an error IP address. I thought if I reinstalled the software for the broadband modem this might correct the problem.

Sound Crackle when BrowseGate active

rhawke
Hi! Whenever I have my Internet Sharing Software BrowseGate ( ) turned on, my soundcard crackles as soon as my network interface card sends or receives data. (I know it sounds crazy) I already tried a different soundcard but that was even worse.

RAM slowdown

steveypoos
my ram seems to be badly damaged. whenever i boot up my pc everything works fine for about 10 minutes, then it makes a spluttering coughing-type sound, and that's when it all kicks off. my curser stutters across the screen in a stop-start motion, then locks up and crashes.
