Hi, "Originally posted by Paulyw1985: well i need the defragmenter, the benchmark, the crash guard, everything basicaly

thanks " Hmmmm, normally no one of the progs of NU2000 is designed to work under Win2k, they're ment for Win9x But under ftp://ftp.symantec.com/misc/americas/sabu/sdnt/sdnt215.zip you can get the beta of Norton SpeedDisk for Win2k - they give the beta away for free to test it! ------------------ Ciao, Robert  ---

Get Ontrack's Fix It Utilites 2000 - it is 100% compatible with Win2k, does pretty much everything that NU2000 does, and a little Birdy named Fosi is giving it away (but you didn't hear it from me) <g>.

MY vote is for Fix It Utilites 2000. I have never had any trouble with it and it does a real good job.

Fix IT Utilites is NOT a norton thing. It is made by Ontrack (you know the people who make PowerDesk)and used Trend virus software. It is very good and does not @#%$ up you system.
