alright, to enable that start page, it's simply just an Active Desktop feature, but to get it going, find the directory Startpage under <drive>\Windows\Web\Startpage\ then go through the needed steps to enable it on the desktop with active desktop.

Pioneer DVD woes....

FakeMcCoy
I recently got one of those Pioneer DVD-303S's, and I've got some weird problems. It reads DVDs just fine, but if you put in a regular cd, it goes into spasms of some type, and takes about 10 secs to get any response from it.

evil Homer
Hi all. . . I found a possible fix on another hardware forum, so I thought I'd post a link here for the fix. MS have updated their Product Support page with a fix for the Athlon/VIA/Geforce/Win2k hanging problem with the AGP driver.

W2K won't boot and stop error

Absolute Zer0
Ok here's the deal my friend had formatted his harddrive but left 13 Gigs unpartitioned b/c he thought of using Linux but after W2K he didn't. So he wanted to merge the space into the current NTFS partition.
