Ok, thanks. Can we say that in this way also "if you are bored using Windows XP......." ?

Yes

...but a reader may not readily understand why you would be 'bored' using an operating system. It is a game that you've played umpteen times. It's just there so that you can run other interesting/boring software. You might be 'frustrated' because of limitations, or frequent crashes.
