Win2k - ICQ & Netscape Problem

TheRat

I recently installed Win2000 for a friend, which went fine. . . but I am having problems with both the latest build of ICQ99b (v3. 19 Build 2569) and Netscape v4. 72. Both programs run fine on my computer (running Win2k) but on his they both generate an error.

2 Quick HD related questions

BladeRunner

Hi, Two real quick questions I'm sure you guys will be able to answer. 1. Is ATA-4 the same as ATA-66? I bought a HD a while back that was advertised as ATA-66, when I have subsequently checked the specifications on the manufacturers web page I'm told it's ATA-4.
