    hi every one!!

    ive just installed xp on my system (500mhz, 256 m ram, 8m ati pro video card)....

    ive had a number of problems with my hardware, that used to operate fine under win 98 btw....

    my old printer is not compatible w/ XP (okidata okipage 4w) and i cant find any XP (or win 2000) drivers for it.... any suggestions???

    second problem....windows XP makes my (old) screen crash (literally) when i run certain games that run in 1024X768mode. this is really odd, and ive tried all the possible settings for display, yet the problem goes unresolved....on top of that, i have cross-checked these settings with a different (newer) screen and all works quite smoothly....i mean screen crash, what can i do ????

    thanks
