aloha!

long time no post on here.... honestly... long time no use of Paris ....
but that is now changing...


after buying a new house and 2 months later, loosing my day gig.... it seems
as good of a time as any to start a new venture.... and bring the old girl
up to date to help in that process...

so, I just purchased a new(er) box to house Paris (the old one is 10 yrs
old... was running on windows 98... and is...well... um... slow)

the new box has a brand spankin' new and fresh install of XP....

here comes the big question...

I have never done a Paris install on XP before... what sort of obstacles
should I be looking out for? any hints/suggestions?

And be sure you only use a single processor system on Paris in these
double and quad processor times.

Actually, I found a fix for the dual CPU issues a little while ago. You need
to have Int Affinity enabled and use a utility. I could post more about
it when I get home tomorrow, if that would be helpful.

Mike,
If these are the only steps this could still be a big plus.
Even a single core of a newer chip could help.
How fast is your processor?

Getting those PCI slots on the other hand . . .
