is winXP pro required for SLI? or home edition good enough?

I have seen (on ABS I think?) that some websites let you customize your computer for a SLI solution ONLY if you get the PRO version of winXP. Does that mean that SLI will not work with the home edition?

Thanks!

both should be fine...

that is a double 😕 😕 and some additional :shocked: and :roll: put in as well. There is absolutely no reason you need XP Pro for SLI. If you were running two dualcore Opterons on the other hand ...

I run 7800GTXSLI with a dual core A64m 4600+ on XP home, and 6800GT SLI on a A64 3800+ with XP Home, and have no problems.

I'm not a "power windows user" who delves into every option, but I haven't noticed much difference between the XP Pro I use at work and the XP Home I use at home.
