I run the latest Ivy Bridge and Nvidia Kepler based GPUs on XP. It blows the 64bit Winblows 7 crap out of the water in performance and stability, reliability and compatibility.

It’s a well known fact Adobe monkeys are LAZY and incompetent, no wonder they killed Flash on mobile after years of futile work trying to get to to even work acceptably on mobile.

I am kidding of course. XP is going out for everybody anyway.

It does not support synchronization of hardware and software windows + has no built in GPU memory virtualization + has no preemption of gpgpu program execution. There is a reason MS decided not to try to support gpu acceleration of IE on XP nor Vista. Win7 cleaned things up, and with win8 we finally have a very mature driver model (with preemption of compute).

Google dropped XP support for Google Docs just a few days ago. MS dropped Office support a few months ago. MS dropped IE gpu acceleration from the very start . There certainly must be a world full of lazy programmers out there if what you suggest is practical.

Do yourself a favor, upgrade to Ivy bridge hardware with PCIE 3.0, and a nice Nvidia, or AMD video card.

@Anthony – There are still some people using XP, though that is most likely down to it not having broken for them. Pity anyone who has to reinstall the OS – I had to do that a year ago for someone, and the number of patches required to bring it up to date were eye-watering!

OpenGL 4.3 is fully support on Nvidia 400/500 and 600 series GPUs on Windows XP.

XP can support advanced OpenGL 4.3 features, but like Steve Jobs said, Adobe monkeys are LAZY and incompetent.

This is unacceptable Adobe!

Why XP and not Vista — simply small market share?

By the way today I have installed CS6 on Win XP and it runs like a magic.
