Did you 'upgrade' to Windows XP (over the top of a previous install) or install Windows XP fresh and clean?
I've had Windows XP installations running here for over 18 months now, without a hitch.

What sort of problems have you been having? I'm truly curious, as I've had nothing but glowing praise of it from almost everybody who's switched to XP

I have a problem at the moment when i have multiple IE and Other programs running at one time eg outlook, i can only change between progams usinf alt + tab if id do it the other way via the task bar the progran will freeze for about 15 sec at the most.

most updates, don't need to be good updates...

Curious. I've got all Windows updates installed here, and haven't had any problem .
I haven't been able to uncover any reports of this behaviour following a recent update, either.

I havent installed sp1 yet. how long dose it take to install the express update?

Only a few minutes to install all the important updates, if you order the Security CD and install them from that!
