out of XP & 98, on which would games run better ?Hey dudes,
Did u know tht XP causes crashes to sm games?
Check out Commandos:Behind Enemy Lines
It always crashes on WinXP
but runs smoothly on Win98.@spy i dont think there is such a game that works on XP and not on 98!! :? but since XP is capab. of mutli threading and saves much resources it plays a lillte more smoothly..Microsoft Windows XP is the best for games. Old games u can use the compatibility modei use win98 for old games and winxp for newer ones
both r good in their fieldsif u have a lower config then win2k with some optimisations
Half of the games don't work on windows 2k...WINDOWS 98 is all the best for old PCs
XP,Me sucks......... too resource hungry on OLD PCs
on new they are good ..........98 sucks ... thenChronicles of Riddick,Doom3(well i am not sure for doom3) does not work on 98 .:idea:
HEY GUYS NOTE THAT!! DOOM 3 !! :( WONT RUN ON WIN 98!
SO MY CHOICE FOR A GAME DUDE IS GO FOR WIN XP BEST FOR
GAMES WHICH ARE NEW AND COMPLEX
BUT FOR YOUR OLD DOS GAMES STICK TO WIN 98 WITH
THAT 486 PC :DHa but can someone tell me y republic commando stays on loading the kashyyk mission after cutscene forever though i have sufficient reqs98 iis best for old systems.Some new games do not run on 98. Plus all games are now optimised to run on xp. Thus WINDOWS XP is way better than 98.Well... Not Zeus and Armed and Dangerous
Zeus can't be run on XP even in emulation mode and A&D is dead slow...because commandos is a old game so basicly it wiil work good with 98 my opinion is to have both 98 & xp as os so u can play all gameslike bharathbala2003 said XP is more suitable, some new games might not work on 98.WinXP SP2 4 me... the best 4 games.. seems that the nvidia drivers for XP are better.. in Q3A. XP SP2 gives about 30 fps more than in Win 2000 Pro +SP4.Newer games might be better off with XP, as they may be optimised for XP.
For any older game, 98 is better as it occupies lesser RAM. Pre 2000 games are almost sure to run better on 98 than NT based operating systems.MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP is the best till date I have found....Depends on many things. But I play games in Win98, since it hogs less memory as compared to WinXP. And use WinXP for my work purpose, since it allows my Intel Pentium 4 HT processor to work in Hyper Threading mode. Good for Photoshop like applications. Though games too might benefit from it. But still I use Win98 for playing games.well, some games require double the rAM on XP than in 98,
but then XP is the clearer choice for the future games...
But if u have a mid-low PC u can go for 98 for better gameplay...if u have a lower config then win2k with some optimisations
if a descent/ better config then win XP sp2 , system restore off, remote services off, network connection off, unrequired services offif u dont need the look of XP then go for Win 2000 ... thats good enough for both gaming and professional apps ....well.. XP would run it better.. but then i dont think there would b a very big difference..spy`s totally wring i agree with bharat well there`s no game dat works on xp n not on 98
well the fact is both the o s`s have their pro`s n cons u cannot choose which one is the bestWEll...no one has mentioned abt device drivers.. The latest device drivers for Graphics cards r designed for the RAW perfromance & they won't work properly with win98.Guess what Republic commando demo is not running on win 98. dunno wat is the problem.going on loading for 20 mins. i think it should work with a radeon 9200 128 mbMICROSOFT WINDOWS XP SP2 is the best for Games.#If you have any other info about this subject , Please add it free.# |
