Ok, in an effort to get me introduced to everyone here that have no idea who I am, tell me what Operating System you use. It kinda explains who you are a bit more than you think, and it can also serve as a reference for those giving support in the Post Your Computer Questions/Help Thread (http://www.gametavern.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7837).

Now when I say OS, I mean what version, and what major updates you have. For example, I use Windows XP Professional, downloaded Service Pack 2 (as should most), along with other OS's. Specify whether or not you downloaded or bought the Service Packs on disc, or if they already came with your OS disc, as they will differ a bit.

Multiple platform owners, feel free to list every OS you have on each machine.

Be VERY specific, particualary if you use Linux or MacOS, since updates are more major on those platforms.

Now, let me list my OS's:

-Windows XP Professional, downloaded Service Pack 1, downloaded Service Pack 2

-Windows 2000, unknown Microsoft patch and Service Pack (can't remember)

-MacOSX 10.4.2 (Tiger), Classic 9.2.2 (not full OS9)

-Red Hat Linux 9, Just downloaded Fedora package

Also, please edit your post to add any changes you may have made, or any critical updates you've installed.

I'd love to see what you guys are working with!!

WinXP Pro SP2

Ditto, plus Ubuntu Linux for when I feel like it. I got Ubuntu in the mail for free at a whim. XP came from my dad's work.

OK Jonbo and Dyne, did SP2 come with the XP disc you have, or did you download the updates?

Can't forget that part...

The family computer at our house uses Windows XP with Service Pack 2. That part was downloaded because SP2 did not yet exist when we bought our computer.

Windows XP Pro. No updates since it's a pirated copy. My computer came with Windows ME and I couldn't stand it.

XP Pro SP2. I didn't download it so much as it downloaded itself. My PC is set to auto-update on pretty much everything.

No, we've owned it before SP1. Both were downloaded.
