Yep, WinXP has somewhat of a reputation for requiring RAM upgrades.

Wish I could get ADE working well, it may be a side effect of running bleeding-edge Arch Linux -- WINE is supposed to be kind of finicky and it would help to have everything as formulaic as most distros handle it.

ADE 1.7 works perfectly, but I can't get the tools to work. Also, dotnet35sp1 returns a bunch of weird errors and generally WINE seems to be acting unpredictable recently.

Anyway, it is my fault for using archlinux.
