Windows XP Issues

                   Info from Dave Barker

Following pieces in the last issue of SynTax, Dave sent me two
addresses of sites you may find useful if you're being bothered by
XP incompatibility problems or just want to learn more about it.

The first is:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/nhp/Default.a
sp?contentid=28000911

This site looks way too complicated for me and I would say it's
aimed more towards programmers. There's an application
compatibility toolkit to download, information on a program called
AppVerifier which can be used to test compatibility issues with
applications and info on compatibility testing for accessibility
programs such as Magnifier and Narrator. Yes, it's all w-a-y over
my head but I'm sure others will understand it perfectly well..

The second is a more general one:
http://www.winxpnews.com/index.cfm

This is more my find of site. WinXPNews is an online mag which
covers all aspects of XP including compatibility issues.  There
are hints and tips, articles and other info. The current issue has
sections on XP security and themes. Check it out.

If you find any useful sites, please let me know about them >> Sue
