Ah, not entirely true. I am running on win xp and tried to code some C++ on that OS. At first it was a b***h and it would just quickly open up a command propmt window and then close it again. After a few hours of fiddling with startup options I got it working. Just letting you know that there IS a way, its just hard and i forget how.

Well, Its better to use a other pc anyway, if you are doing some programming and win xp scans it and finds a "strange/illegal" command, it closes your programm... Thats why Im getting a P2 with dos installed
