Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

User Reviews

• Simply The Best

  cpuram142/13/2015

  Pros

  * Fast * Easy to use * Not a lot of useless features

  Cons

  * Microsoft ended support for such an amazing OS * Other than that, absolutely NONE

  Summary

  It is still usable today, and it can be just as secure as a newer OS if it is configured properly.

  Pros

  It is a fun operating system.

  Cons

  Nothing that can be thought of.

  Summary

  Thank you Jesus Christ! This operating system has been with me a short while however it is very enjoyable. Throughout my brief years on the computer as a new user it really is impressive. Just my personal prefer. Even the preview of Microsoft Windows 8 does not compare to Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2.

  Ratterify7/9/2012

  Pros

  Works with any application

  Cons

  Slowest OS ever.

  Summary

  So far Windows XP is by far the slowest OS I've ever worked with. Not worth the buy at all.

• Windows XP

  Mert982/6/2012

  Pros

  Easy to use

  Cons

  Slow Not compatible for DX10 and higher Fisher price interface Crashes too much because of drivers Shows BSOD's for no reason No IE9 Bad 64-bit support Insecure

  Summary

  Windows XP is not a good OS, because it keeps crashing for no reason and it's so fucking slow, even if you have 1-2GB of memory. If you have XP, I recommend that you upgrade to Vista SP1+ or 7 now.

• Very, very good Windows program

  Nasademon3/27/2011

  Pros

  Easy to deal with problems, easy to navigate. Holds lots of space. Tells when there is a problem and fixes it easily. Fast 85% of the time. Good household computer, tells when a program may harm your computer, and asks if you would like to run it.

  Cons

  Lags sometimes (ANNOYING), can be slow 35% of the time. When multiple tabs & windows are running at the same time, all the programs immediately become 'unresponsive'. When programs become 'unresponsive', pain in the neck to shut the program down.

  Summary

  Overall, I have had this computer ALL MY LIFE, and it still works like brand new. This computer is an 'old but trusted friend', and if you want to pick out a new program, go with this. You won't regret it! :)

• still works if you buy upgrade pkg off of ebay

  pdossey12/11/2010

  Pros

  if your Microsoft ME operating system won't work anymore, buy a upgrade package off ebay that converts your o/s to XP home. Yes, it works OK and allows you to keep your current computer a few more years.. as Microsoft will support XP thru 2013+

  Cons

  no choice but to convert to xp from ME. XP home works just fine and all my old software works great on it. No support for ME which worked great for me for 10 years. Time to move up to XP to keep software current.

  Summary

  XP will probably go down as Microsoft's best operating system ever. After service pack 2 and 3, they finally got it working! Why reinvent the wheel? I'm happy and set for at least 2 or 3 years thanks to a $50 upgrade pkg purchased off ebay
