TechnoOrganics, the Game Design forum is for the discussion of game concepts, rather than technical aspects. You might have more luck in the General Programming forum.

erm ... this is the general programming forum
lol Shag, the moderator relocated the original post for the poster. But hey good eye!
Everything I''ve written for Win98 works for WinXP, as well. I think only programs that do certain low-level things, such as most DOS programs, fail to work with WinXP. Console apps created with VC++ will still work, because those aren''t really true DOS programs...
