re: if you run the same OS on two different systems with the SAME graphics card and the Same hard disk... The pictures show that he Frank did NOT use the same graphics board on both systems. This makes any stability comparisons USELESS. Petz

>Microsoft's older Windows OS's (3.0/3.1/95/98/ME) have various stability difficulties .< Windows 3.1 is the only Windows version that I have used that exhibited no stability problems. However, the retail distribution had unreadable disks that I had to get replaced by MS in order to make the installation. But, then again, I have always had unreadable disks when purchasing a retail distribution of any Microsoft software, something that I never experienced with OEM distributions from sources such as DTK.
