now just how many of these do i need running?? I got 4 of the running under SYSTEM, 1 under LOCAL SERVICE and 1 under NETWORK SERVICE, each is using about 1.5 - 2MB ram and it doesn't seem like much, but they add up, i can understand one or two, but do i really need 6-8 of them running? and is there anyway to have Windows not start so many of them? One of them is using 15.7MB ram for god's sake. BTW, running build 2428. [This message has been edited by EddiE314 (edited 21 March 2001).]

have you actually counted the services? there's like a thousand of them, screw using the trial and error method, takes too long, don't have to worry about that now i got 768mb pc133 cas2 ram (3x256), and besides, in 2481 i only have four of them now and it they only use 14-20mb total. thanks anyway.

because maybe he wants to lock his workstation, he does want SOME security, i have also tried here in 2481 , you're right, it always says that the system could not log me on. no clue on any fixes, sorry.

its not overclocking a modem, and no you can't btw. its called upgrading a modem, the modem i gave you cody has already been upgraded from 33.6 to 56k.

i'd just reinstall windows. no biggie.

someone else on these boards had that problem with his AMD setup, to my knowledge there's no fix.

i'd agree with you on a 500MHz and at least 256MB ram, a nice vid card couldn't hurt.

with sarcasm i hope.

Been playing around with autorun.ini's and was wondering if there was a program available to fool Windows into thinking that a folder is really a CDROM, the reason i want to do this is because i am gonna make a few custom utility cd's and want to test the autorun files. if there are no programs avail. then i would like to know where i could find extensive info on AUTORUN files. Thanks.

yea, i'm using XP 2465 and IE 2465 and they're skinned like Four and Twenty's

well, i see no other options for this guy than to do clean install.

Hmmm, is this the beginning of the end? I thought XP Activation was bad, if Windows starts to become bloat-ware like Netscape, i'll ditch it. What do you think?

could someone post the actual tweak?

Have you tried installing Service Pack 2??

i'd say if win2k is working fine and you CAN still access Admin . Tools, don't worry about it. Do they show up in the Cont. Panel when logged on as Admin.?

not communism, reality.

i agree with most of you guys in saying that anything can be cracked, there's always a loophole, of course, when XP SP1 is released, i won't be upgrading. If this whole MS activation thing gets too far outta hand, i'm going back to NT4 or 2000, its not worth all of the trouble to crack, reinstall, crack, reinstall every other day because everytime you change hardware or apply service packs and/or hotfixes it (in a sense) breaks Windows. All of this is Bullsh1t, what stinks even more is MS's plan to release an OS every fu*kin' year just to get more $$$, i have paid for countless MS products, not this time Mr. Gates, i'm stealing from YOU b1tch!!!! Wanna know why? Check your bank account(s), thats why. When i gotta pay $1.79+ USD for a gallon of gasoline and $300 USD for an OS just so i can fu*kin play Quake, the money in my pocket dries up pretty quick. Between the two "butt-f*ck" kings....Mr. Gates and Mr. Bush, i dunno who's worse. I also smoke Marijuana. Thank you for robbing me blind. -EddiE314

2465 for me, reason? I haven't used 2474 yet.

go to AMD's website, search for patches, read about them to see if your setup requires it. I believe there's a Win2k AMD patch at M$'s website, but just download and install SP2, the patch should be included with that.

yea, tell me if D3D is better.

Hmm, i dunno man, i use the 2462 crack by Silent (i'm running 2465), and it works great.

not as a 2nd OS, maybe my 4th or 5th choice for one. There's hardly any support for it, hardly any third party support...nah, i don't use Linux unless i'm feeling creative or desperate.

do a search for the model number on the Maxtor site.

try uninstalling sp2 and/or rechecking all of your settings. if all else fails, reinstall windows .
