Happy birthday, JImmy!

 

Based on past releases, the directory should open up just after close-of-business EST . . . which will give me just enough time to get home, kick off the ADSL download, then go out for dinner and burn a CD when I get back.

 

Cool . . .

There's one thing you shoudn't forget. RC3 will only be accessable by a few 15,000 selected betatesters. So not every beta-tester will have access to the directory with their login and password.

 

And a happy birthday.

Well it doesnt look any different then rc2 or build 2176. It runs very simliar. Still having compatibility issues with hardware that didnt work

 

IE:

Sigma Hollywood+ decoder

HotRod 66 controller with an ide 33/66 WD drive

Bt848 chipset tv tuner card

 

I automatically updated my drivers with 3.53 for my tnt I shoulda tested it first to see if d3d worked before I updated.. doh!

 

I would upload it to an ftp but Im leaving for home tomorrow for thanksgiving, so if somebody emaiuls me tonight Ill upload it but after tha tIll be gone for a week.

 

later fellas.

The TNT driver that installs "natively" is still 327, and doesn't support D3D or AGP. I slapped the 356 in and played the new Q3A for hours . . .

Hey fellow win2k junkies..

 

This is a bad question, but I am getting tired of waiting.. Does anyone have a copy of win2k 2151 or higher that I can get off of them.. I am part of a software company that receives the rc's from Microsoft, but then tend to arrive really late.. Hit me up on Icq or email if you can lend a hand.

 

Later.

If you're actually on the beta program, give your MS account rep a call, and they'll dish out a UID and Pwd for the FTP site over the phone - a collegue of mine got one just this way only last week.
