i'm using win2k final for over a month and i must say that i'm impressed w/ its stability, ease of use and speed. So I don't quite understand M$ policy to say W2K is "a business OS" and not everybodys's OS, and furthermore why to produce Millenium (such a stupid name in my opinion that only confusion can bring Win2K vs WinMillenium --> let's laugh). And a future dual between Linux vs Win2K??? Just wondering what you guys are thinking about...

Sorry if this is a bit irrelevant but i would really appreciate any help on that: i d/l corellinux-oc_1.0.iso.gz (243MB) from corel, unzipped it and i got the corellinux-oc_1.0.iso file (311MB). How can i burn this file to a CD-R e.g. with Nero so that the contents are shown in the CD-Rom and then boot from it since i have a bootable cd-rom? Further, is a way to install Linux with W2K w/o repartioning my NTFS drive? thanks in advance!

i mean it starts ok,i open iso image but i get a termination message when i select extract files in the same directory or with pathname...

thanks for the replies but i am so unlucky!!! winimage 5.0 doesn't work in w2k and i can't find any beta in the site any other ideas plzzz!

is there a way i could do that w/ nero or cdrwin cause ezcd4 doesn't work on my machine. further, partition magic last version doesn't work on win2k...

ok, but then if you get what you pay for, what's the point of M$ claiming that WinMill will be the last on the series and a unified OS called "Whistler" will follows? I mean what about its price (will it be 1/2*[Win2K+WinMill] $$$ ?

well, i uninstalled 4.0.7.5 +deleted ahead folder-> installed 4.0.8.3 but i still get the "fot volume mounting a needed driver is missing /or wrong version" error (nerocdnt.sys?)what is happening??

w/ nvidia drivers 3.75 --> comp hangs after a while (usually in internet explorer) -->freezes and i can't even restart my comp, so i turn it off and on again... now i'm back w/ the default win2k drivers...

anyone with an Abit BH-6 (mine is rev1.0 + firmware FU) who has hybernation support in Win2k final??? p.s. (you can also check an older post in win2k appz w/ subject Auto shutdown in win2k)

i've installed nero 4.0.7.5 on win2k final (reboot->blu screen->reboot>last good config), but when i make an audio compilation and select tracks with drag & drop nero tells me:"the nero driver is not installed.without this nero cannot handle drag & drop operations of .cda files.please use the menu command save track instead to obtain wav files." therefore i cannot make compilations on the fly! any ideas? ( before nero i installed adaptec aspi latest-4.60. also after the above message nero tells me that it can't find the atapi/scsi device i specified e.g. D: ) [This message has been edited by 5t3ph3n (edited 08 January 2000).]

hi there! is there a way i can auto-shutdown my ATX computer with win2kpro final with no need to turn off the switch? thanks in advance motherboard: ABIT BH-6 / P2-350

with all the respect SHS, i am 99% sure that even after i checked the APM box my comp still didn't auto shut-down; but when i disabled(!!) the ACPI in BIOS-->voila! all done! anyway something from Abit's BIOS revisions that may help users (http://www.abit.com.tw/english/download/bios-bh6.htm); in rev. GY they disable ACPI by default; in rev. HN the "Solves the problem of Windows98 not being able to shut-down properly when the ACPI function is enabled. "; in my FU: "Supports ACPI function"; So i believe that if i play with my Abit's biossettings i could get Hybernation like i got auto-shutdown;but i don't want to experiment with BIOS settings or updates. (maybe then and after clean install hybernation?) sorry for the long post!

just found something; i disabled(!) the ACPI setting in BIOS and now i can auto-shutdown. seems very strang though! the thing is that i still cannot put my computer in Hibernation mode. any ideas? [ABIT BH-6 BIOS: FU, WIN2K PRO]
