I really like this product, when it works. And on my Dell Inspiron 8100 it doesn't work very often. Win XP is a great operating system that is very stable unless you try to run the Nostromo software - then XP crashes, every time.Consequently I cannot load any game profiles so the Nostromo is just an attractive paper weight.Blekin recently updated the software and drivers, which I downloaded and installed but it did not help any.If you use Windows XP think twice before buying the Nostromo n50.
