I ve just installed win xp professional.
And Mir works on it but it crashes every 5 minutes now!

Is this normal and will there be an update for this or is it
my problem and should it have too work?
Please help because i don t want to install win98 all over again!

I have XP home edition as well and no probs so far.
You might want to try installing mir again to see if that will help.

you'l need to makae sure you have the latest Direct X drivers installed, it may be a case theat your modem is causing the problem and not XP, I had the same problem a while ago and I changed my modem. It has been fine eversince. It was something to do with the V90 aspect.

I've only ever had Mir running on XP Professional (though I've player briefly on a friend's machine running Win 2K). I've never had the slightest problem with it and never had to do any DirectX updates or anything ... so I suspect the previous answer about the modem may indeed be correct.

win xp updates most times and finds all latest drivers but if not, it usualy will tell you that a driver failure occured, if u didnt get any msgs, check your hardware devices check for any errors

WinXP runs Mir more smoothly than 98 if you can get it running. I have used XP on my laptop and my desktop machine ... and now a few mates who play Mir are using it and none of them have any problems. When you say that it crashes every 5 minutes, did it hang or crash with an error? Have you checked what energy saving, screen saver and suspend options you have set? If any of these are set to 5 minutes it would be worth disabling it and seeing if it solves the problem. At the end of the day, if this doesn't work then have a dual boot machine as XP has sufficient improvents over 98 that it is well worth running it for most everything.
