XP users and DeskScapes 2.5

from WinCustomize Forums

Unless I've missed them I haven't seen any posts by XP users that have downloaded DeskScapes 2.5 and if they had problems.

I'm running XP Home SP3 32-bit on a system that has a P4 2.6GHz, 2.0GB of memory and a AGP Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 dual vga card with 256mb of memory.  I tried once and it ran slow, I got inpatience and started to click with the mouse and my system locked up.  Got so bad I had to restore to before I download DeskScape and reload video drivers.

I'm sure human error was invloved so I'm looking for some guidance and help here.  Was there something else I needed to look at like codecs? If so where do I get them?

I've put in a ticket, but thought making a post couldn't hurt either. :S

AlvinTanpoco: I am sorry to say we do not support XP 64 bit with Deskscapes.

Only XP 32 bit, and Vista 32/64 bit are supported platforms.

It is unlikely we will ever add support for 64 bit XP as the development cost is unlikely to ever be recoverable.

Neil, for those of us with less experience then you or no experience at all with messing with the registry, how does one do what you suggest?

Also, not to cause problems amongst the troops, I put in a ticket and Shirly found me on the IRC and we had a discussion on me problem.  That's why my comment in reply #21.

You run regedit but if you are inexperienced with that tool you should probably not do it.

Hopefully future updates of Deskscapes will add it as a checkbox option.

Regarding what Shirley may have told you, to the best of my knowledge there are no upcoming nvidia drivers to help with AGP issues as the issue was a driver issue with the ATI boards only.
