Re: Staying with XP after April 8 2014 (was Win 7 vs Win 8)

I don't even clearly recall what problems Tame was supposed to resolve.


1. Jerky cursor movement

2. 100% CPU usage when Xy is in the background


 Xy4DOS has always been on my XP systems, and I never found any need to
investigate Tame. But then I nearly always run Xy fullscreen, so if it
has anything to do with running with less than the entire screen I
wouldn't know. Laptops might be a special case, but I don't recall any
insurmountable problems there either.

Bill,

Are you also using Tame? Or does Xywrite work perfectly well in this set
up without Tame? I've never used Win 2k. I went from Win98 to Win XP --
and I seem to remember that I first needed Tame to get Xywrite to work
properly on an XP machine.
