>I have some problems using Rhide in Win XP.Does any one have problems?
>Does Rhide support Win xp?
You did not give any examples of the problems you are encountering so
it is very difficult to help out appart from generic type of stuff.

The short answer to this is that there are problems with XP's low
level API which have been getting fixed and as such the Rhide 1.5.0
snapshots work allot better and keep improving.

Long answer:-
a) If you have a Nvidia based video card or someother card that has a
flaky video bios then start Rhide with a "-S". 
b) If you use Rhiode 1.5.0 snapshots then they will work under XP.
c) Rhide 1.5.0 snapshot is built with DJGPP CVS LIBC so it should have
all of the DJGPP bug fixes which were included in the C library when
it was built.
d) If you do get a crash please email me details on it so I can track
them to see if there is a pattern. Remove the .oz or .au from my email
address.

Rhide 1.5.0 snapshots can be found at www.rhide.com
