Command Prompt Here

Matt Beale
Don't know about you guys/gals, but one thing I missed under Windows 2000 was the Command Prompt Here Power toy. Well, I spent this afternoon fiddling with the inf from the Windows 98 Powertoys collection and came up with the following - It fully supports installation and uninstall via the Add/Remove Programs applet.

Creative Labs jerkoffs

felix
A big thumbs down to the Creative Labs driver development team for their removal of support for the PCI128. There are some people who are going to be pis5ed off. I just hope that they don't have similar thoughts about the live series.

Soundblaster Live

JBrave715
I'm about to buy Sound blaster Live! Xgamer tomorrow and was wondering if it's actually recommended for Windows 2000? I heard bad things with their new Live Ware for windows 2000 drivers. And is it worth the extra $100 to get SB Live! platinum instead or would I notice that big of a difference?.

System Stability

ParaDoX
My Win2000 Pro is unstable as hell. When I play games it suddenlyfreezes, sometimes after 30mins, sometimes after 2hours. It also has a tendency to freeze in regular windows. My system is perfectly stable in WinME (but Win2k is so much better), so it's not because of my OC CPU, it's running at 25-28degrees celsius ...

How to upgrade RC3 to final without pirating??? Strange

FrogMaster
Strange! My main machine is W2K final (paid for with hard-earned money). So far so good. . . I installed old RC3-2183 on my secondary machine because I didn't want to install the same version again because of licence/legal stuff.

Win2K drivers for IntelĀ® USB PC Camera Pro Pack

Spazz
I just upgraded my machine to Win 2k and everything works except for my Intel Web cam. Intel's web site says they are not supporting Win 2k, but the Win98 drivers should work. I've tried the USB drivers, but are not able to get the system to recognize the camera correctly.

Ground control and 2000?

noxa
I just picked up Ground Control, and for some reason, software mode runs better than hardware! System: -Windows 2000 Pro -PIII 733 Coppermine -256MB RDRAM -90GB HD (45+30+20) -TNT1 16MB PCI (it's not the card, as I can get amazing FPS in other games, in both OpenGL and D3D) ~noxa~
