Windows 7. The only time you want to be using xp is when you have very little ram (as a general rule). In terms of their ability to run this emulator neither will do a better job but windows 7 is more "future proof", who knows, maybe one day we'll get a dx11 graphics plugin Smile.

Gotcha, thanks.

Probably going to get a free (legit) Windows 7 key from my uncle. He gets like 10 latest OS keys a year at workTongue

I was going to ask that too. I assumed he already made up his mind though.
