I still need XP to run my old accounts program and my database. Changing these to later compatible programs is not really an option due to the amount of stuff that needs to be changed. I can run them in VMware but it is a bit of a nuisance booting into this just to make small corrections to my accounts
I got round the problem with my old compiled basic utilities OK by using Qb64(gl) to recompile
Other than these I use Win 7 and Win 8 for everything else OK now. Windows 8.1 is quite acceptable running classicshell. Great improvement on that horrible screen that has two full pages of program/links that I never use

PS I have not installed any XP updates for a long time now. Still run Sp3
