DeadCats 0 Posted October 21, 2000 I've been running SystemWorks 2001 for around a month now, with no problems. It comes in two flavors: The $40 version gets you NAV2001, Speed Disk, Disk Docter, Win Doctor, and Clean Sweep. For $20 more you get those plus Ghost and Norton Fax. Right now, NAV2001 is going for $19.95 at the local Staples (the closest thing we have to a "computer store" out here in the boonies). In Win98 and WinME, SystemWorks installs a few more goodies. Aparently they either don't work or aren't needed in Win2K. I've found Speed Disk to be substantially faster than the full version of Diskeeper, but it lacks a boot-time defrag and a couple of other features that Diskeeper has. All-in-all, it's a pretty good set of utilities, especially if you can get it at a good price. ------------------ "This year will go down in history.

J_Pro 0 Posted October 21, 2000 Does it put any errors in your event log. I hate software that does that. Share this post Link to post
Shrink 0 Posted October 21, 2000 Yep - stupid NAV2001 introduces the IRPStacksize error and I started getting winmgmt errors after I installed it. NAV7 Corporate doesn't cause the IRPStacksize errors, just Nav2001 and prior iterations of the non-Corporate NAV's. ------------------ Shrink 92% of the things we worry about don't happen - but the other 8% DO!

DeadCats 0 Posted October 21, 2000 I haven't been able to locate any event log errors attributable to SystemWorks 2001. Could be an update fixed that? ------------------ "This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration.
