I don't think it's a question of the age of the equipment, but what components are used.
The last time I tried Ver 4 with SE, I reformatted my HD and used my XP box:
Abit AV8 board with A64 4000 cpu and 512 meg of Corsair PC3200 ram; dropped down from 2 gig so SE would install without problems.
That platform would also run Vista; I still think it's a weird VIA issue. I have
yet to hear of anyone with a later VIA system board running Ver 4 without problems. Folks with Intel systems seem to have less issues
with ver 4.
