No kev we dont cos lets face it, ure not gettin a duron 600. ure gonna have ure cyrix 233 forever and u should get more RAM than 8Mb if u wanna keep running win2k [This message has been edited by DavidNewbould (edited 06 October 2000).]

up win2k sux for games ! win98 rules for game ! yahhhhhh

oh its america is it ??? no thanks not 4 me. im not a flamer, im just advising everyone to throw win2k BACK into the bin and get win98SE out from the "shelf of brilliance", you all know it makes sense. as for whistler....no i'll not bother

hmm you all seem to think win2k is gods gift to computer users. as some dumbass mentioned, yes i AM in a clan - [bFG]. Im also in [OTT], why? no, not because im a "cool d00d", but because i enjoy playing games. yes thats right games. You may not of heard of them because of win2k's s.hitey "lets-run-4000-things-at-once-so-it-doesnt-crash" theory. When my PC booted win2k, it would take bloody ages to load in even the desktop. And for the last time dont go on about me knowing nothing because its getting old. "win98 is for mummys and daddys who are scared of pc's" an interesting thought yet again, especially since you all seem to think that win2k is SUPER STABLE and win98 gives BSOD's all the time. So wouldnt it make sense to stick to the "more stable" OS ? Yes it would. and i also used to twin-boot but because win2k took up half my hard drive for JUST to OS, i scrapped it and went to winME. I found this to be pretty ****, so i formatted and went to win2k only. Big mistake. After only 3 days, i formatted again and posted this thread. Win98 has never crashed on me since i formatted, and as long as someone who doesnt know much about pc's doesnt **** AROUND with it, its fine. I have win98 tweaked so my internet connection rocks on my 56K modem, games fly, it NEVER crashes, and most importantly, IT BOOTS QUICKLY. Win2k may be fast for people with half a terrabyte of RAM, and an PIII 1.04Ghz, but for the average joe, win98 kicks ass. WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98 WE ALL LOVE SUPER FAST WIN98

hmm interesting opinions, how u assume that because i am running windows 98, i therefore know nothing about computers. When, perhaps, you may want to think that i primarily use my computer for playing games, and the sensible option would be to use windows98 as IT IS FASTER for games on MY SYSTEM. And WTF is up with my apparent "inability to install and configure windows" ???? Where the hell are you getting that from ??? Weird...

I have found a great way to speed up games in windows2000. i usually play at 1024x768 and my level of access is Administrator. Creat a new account and give it power user privileges, also knock down the res to 800x600, (you dont notice any major difference) You will find that games run A LOT faster. It works wonders for my s.hitey spec - AMD K6-2 450Mhz nVidia TNT2 M64 64Mb PC100 RAM [This message has been edited by DavidNewbould (edited 01 October 2000).]

hi i have a TNT2 M64 and an ASUS P5A-B mobo with an AMD K6-2 450Mhz CPU. I have no AGP support in win2k. i have latest drivers - 1.27 latest AGP drivers - 169e latest directx8 build when i run dxdiag it says there is no AGP Texture support. any suggestions ???

If you pulled out the power connectors on the mobo, it wouldnt clear anything, as its the CMOS battery that keeps everything alive while the PC is switched off. You should find the jumper that is there to clear CMOS and try that.

what are dirvers ?
