  1. As I connected to LAN the first time with win 2K it didn't work at all. Tried out two different types of ISA cards and it didn't work. It wasn't untill I replaced it with a PCI D-link card, that I got it to work. Why is that? OK ISA is outdated but, still, backwards compability?!??! Aby one knows the probb? (The computer recognized me in the LAN but no one else?

    Does anyone know how to speed up win2k pro?

    What the other have told you is true, but if you are a gamer like myself, I strongly recommend buying a better video card. I myself had a vodoo card once and when I changed to a TNT 2 Ultra the difference was huge in games like Quake 2. It's a different kind of grafic, with vodoo you get the smudgy, blurry grafix and TNT gives me a sharper picture that is much faster. I recommend a Geforce 2 card which is currently the hottest one. Expensive though. AND not to forget, if you get a riva besed grafix card, be sure to get the detonator drivers! The drivers that come with the card usually suck! so visit Nvidias home page and get the latest detonator driver available, for win 2K. -Se ya on the other side!

    New Version of Whistler?

    OK i'm not a beta tester or anything, but i remember when Win 95 was on the verge of popping in to the stores and I had tested the final beta or what ever it was that i got hold of and I had so many probbs, i cant even begin to think how stupid i was back then, to try out a beta. So now im quite reserved to betas. Maby tech. has come a long way, but i dunno, ill better stay away. Has everything been OK so far with whistler? -Manos66

    W2K Startup problem

    My Win 2K has a prob. at startup. It always hangs the first time I do a cold startup, and then i have to push the reset button to startup again. And then it works but it is very anoying to do this. It was OK in the beginning but sometime ago when I installed something (I can't remember what) I had to choose "startup with the last known good configuration" and since then I had this prob. Anyone out there who can lend a hand? Thx! By the way, has anyone else experiensed a 100% improvement in internet speed via modem when upgrading from Win 98 to Win 2K? This is a good OS! -Manos

    The mix between German and English is not a good way to comunicate. The point of the posting was totally lost. Wenn hr Deutsh schreiben wollen dann tuh es ganz aus ja? Weil beide sprachen zu kombinieren ist für alle unferstendlich. C ya!

    W2K Startup problem

    The first log event of my startup in the event log says: Source: redbook Category: None Event ID: 10 Description: This drive has not been shown to support digital audio playback. As I look thru the log, it shows this message at every first cold boot. I set the preferences for my CD-RW (SCSI) to use digital playback, I will reset it and try starting up again. Thx very much for your reply. If you think that there could be another problen then please post again. I'm grateful for your advise. -Manos!
