This is poised to be an experimental Linux Mint pc someday, or I might send it
to the landfill because I don't like the sound of the fan running. The XP in
this particular pc seems to be accessing the HDD every second and the sound is
very noticeable. The live boots of Linux were not doing that.

This had XP originally. Problems arose. Tried Lubuntu/64bit and then
Manjaro/64bit for a while. I was impresseed. But I had a problem getting
networking to work with other Win pcs. So, I settled with Win7. Nice pc, CPU is
64bit supported, but mobo only recognizes 4GB max with Linux, and only 3GB max
with Windows.
ES> Do you have any quarrels with the software as of late?
WinXP and Win7 cooperating very nicely. Just running out of HHD space on all of
them.
ES> As for me currently I am running Windows 10 Professional
ES> 64bit. I am up to feature version 1909. And surprisingly my

Good to hear.
ES> ... I can't recollect the last time it
ES> completely crashed on me. It's been a few years!
Are you leaving it on 24/7? If so, then I am impressed.
Are you doing a full shutdown at the end of your day? If so, that probably
explains a smoother operation. A full reboot often cleans up things.
ES> CPU is a custom barebones build from 2011. AMD FX 6100 Black
ES> Edition / 6 cores @ 3.31 GHz 8 Gig DDR3 ram 240 Gig Kingston
ES> SSD (about slap full)
That's a very modern machine. My [4] above is the newest of the bunch. I have
the extra 4GB modules for it since about 6 months ago to maximize it to 8GB,
but no spare time to plop it in.
