EDIT: I thought the forum auto-linked the word ti-connect. Hmmm...

way2fast106 Probe Posted: 12 Sep 2005 15:06 GMT Total Posts: 2 | If the message said somthing like a warning that you shouldn't use it on XP because it hasn't passed some test, just click yes or whatever to install anyway. Its just a warning saying that Microsoft hasn't tested it on their systems yet. |
