 __NOTOC__
 ===Windows XP===
 Windows XP is no longer supported.  If a machine comes to the Help Desk running Windows XP, this will not be re-imaged with XP or allowed to be put back in service.  We will recommend that the machine be upgraded to Windows7 or better if the hardware allows, or if the hardware cannot accommodate this we will recommend that the work unit responsible for this equipment replace the hardware.
