radx 0 Posted January 9, 2000 HI FOLKS!! I'm currently pretty darn pleased with the progress of win2k. I've gotten all my hardware working and i'm amazed, the system hasn't crashed even once!!!! NO explorer.exe has preformed... or nothing!! My system is the following: CPU: Celeron 300@450mhz RAM: 192MB (samsung) HDD-IDE: 2x6,4gb 13,5gb 8,4gb HDD-SCSI: 9,0gb SCSICARD: Adaptec 2940uw GFX: TNT 1 SND: SBLIVE 1024 NIC: 3C0M 3c905b-tx TV: Miromedia PCTV/PCTV PRO CDROM: Plextor 32x scsi CDR: Panasonic 7502 scsi ZIP: Iomega 100meg scsi PRINTER: okidata 4w Pointer: Logitec Mouseman (using standard drivers) You belive that? All this stuff workin.. I've though not a flawless system, i'm currently disapointed with the following (not win2k's fault): PRINTER drivers make the system take 100% cpu each 5sec if it's not activated. TNT drivers aint optimized and i'm missing the options in displayproperties that win9x offers. MIRO TV drivers aint giving radioFM support, slow channel changing and misc probs.. SBLIVE! doesn't have that great support from creative as of yet, but i guess it's just a matter of time! This is all, Way go Win2000 rox's! Let's just hope the software devolopers will support it like they do with win9x. what is your experience with this new exciting OS? Thanks all for reading this post Radx - radx@hotmail.com Share this post Link to post
Arkos Reed 0 Posted January 9, 2000 Except the drivers for my TnT2 card that are very poorly optimized (heh why making brand new kickass drivers for a TnT2 when GeForce is out, it's surely what the guys at nVidia are saying :-( ) everything works fine.
