Windows 8 compatibility toolo indicates that my xp bios may not have NX or NX is not turned on (which I doubt). Install of win 8 will apparently try to turn it on NX..... if this does fail which I'm not optomistic then an upgrade from xp to win 7 wouldn't

be bad, considering the support will be longer and another win 8 computer that I have will comunicate with the currnt xp better (skydrive sync)... Just don't know if the hassle in time and if it going to more than the $40 win 8 upgrade --- is worth it. Thanks

for any insight and comments.
