| | Microsoft Windows - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Windows Vista and Windows Server "Longhorn", the successors to Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 respectively, are currently under development. | | | Microsoft Windows is a series of popular proprietary operating environments and operating systems created by Microsoft for use on personal computers and servers. | | | Finally, Windows implemented an elaborate, segment-based, software virtual memory scheme which allowed it to run applications larger than available memory: code segments and resources were swapped in and thrown away when memory became scarce, and data segments moved in memory when a given application had relinquished processor control, typically waiting for user input. |

| | Windows XP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Windows XP is one of the major revisions of the Microsoft Windows operating system created for use on desktop and business computer systems. | | | Windows XP is also the first version of Windows to use product activation to combat software piracy, a restriction that did not sit well with some users and privacy advocates. | | | According to a Microsoft press release, Windows XP Starter Edition is "a low-cost introduction to the Microsoft Windows XP operating system designed for first-time desktop PC users in developing countries." It is seen as an effort to fight unauthorized copying of Windows XP and possibly the spread of GNU/Linux-based systems in Asia and South America. |

| | A boot disk can start the operating system on a computer running Windows XP if it will not boot properly and the damage is suspected to be in the files that start Windows. | | | Windows File Protection is an important tool, with it; you can run an executable (sfc.exe) that will start a process to analyze your system but other times, you will want to disable it. | | | As changes are made to your system from installing applications and other software, the Window File Protection (WFP) system works to keep XP running and not introduce anything that may cause the system to become unstable, a curse of older Windows based operating systems. |
