nightfox1405241487 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2005 I have installed a alpha version of the longhorn. It had a black gui and very nice document folders but it had some problems with drivers but i think it is like that only because it is in an alpha stage. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I installed an advanced alpha version too. Worked real nice except for making new folders. Using one of the guides I found, it had a fix for this. Wrong move. This messed up the OS. From this point on, Longhorn refused to work correctly. I made the mistake of installing it over my GOOD working version of XP instead of one that dosen't seem to work right. I have to agree that M$ should slow down when making Windows versions. But I would like to see a whole new Windows. 98 was built off of 95, 2k was built off of 98, ME was built off of 2k, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
