Hi every one
I'm feeling like a newbie all over again! but i'm an oldie really!
Been running my Scope system (Vers 4 software btw) quite happily on a asus board with an ancient P4 2.5 with Win XP Pro and Cubase for many a happy year, never had any problems what so ever BUT - having just fallen in love with and bought Native Instruments Kontakt 3 i'm beginning to realise my faithful old PC is a bit long in the tooth with the new Cubase and it's native plugins...
Been browsing through the forums on here and the board and cpu's mentioned in here seems quite a reasonable cost effective upgrade, one thing i'd like to ask is what OS you guys are running, I'm not a fan of vista and not interested in windows 7 - i don't need to be replacing all my native plugins one by one, so - a simple question, how does win XP pro 32 bit run on the cpu/mobo discussed here?
Ask a retailer and they just say you HAVE to ugrade to vista at least, and I tell them I DONT WANT TO !!!
I'd be grateful to hear any experience you've had, i'd be happy to maybe ugrade too Scope 4.5 if i have to but really don't need to be wasting many a late night trying to get it all working when i should be working...
Thanks in advance for any replies !
