trouble installing on xp

Another reason to dislike "that" operating system. Anyone had success installing the genome client on a xp machine?

Have downloaded the installer serveral times. It just crashes on me.

I seen where someone got it to work by using the command line. No such luck here. Still the big crash.

genome is what I would like to use. Maybe I should try the folding..... will the Linuxjunior team still get credit???

they have a combined client now - folding+genome, it can be configured for either or from what i understand

Well, I finally got genome to install. Not a very delicate method, but it worked. I quickly and repeatedly kept launching the installer and viola........ makes no sense but the end result is what matters.
