Ok Games have been running crap on XP, even in 98 compatability mode, but today I got an update and the compatibility mode works SWEET. No more chopiness in games, I haven't played games in months because of that.

Anybody have Castle Wolfenstein on XP yet? I want to pick it up if it runs good.

Well it's not that it didn't work, it's just that it didn't work very well. It had the same performance as as regular XP mode when i'd run it in compatability mode. Red faction, commandos 2, operation flashpoint, etc...
