VP6, BETA 2, and ACPI

luders

So I know that the ACPI Multi-Processor kernel was not working with my previous build of XP (2458) but has anyone got it going with 2462. I just upgraded from 2458 to 2462 so I stayed at MPS Multi-Processor.

Dream features - your list of what you wish you could do in

Pythagoras

Just curious what youve always wanted to be able to do in a winndows environment, but is either impossible/available or you dont know how. 1) Ive always wanted to be able to alpha blend any 2 windows together so I could be using one and still be able to see through the window Im using to something else.

Why won't my virtual mail server start at startup?

ancker

I am running Windows 2000 Server and am running a virtual mail server in IIS. It is set to Automatic and it won't start when Win2k boots. Whats wrong? It doesn't make any sense why it won't start. Everything is set up correctly.

Is it true

bando2000

With Win2k if you decide to use NTSF that you can not go back to a Fat or any kind. It says in the manual it can not be reversed once it is done. I need to know if this is true or not. Or is there a way to go back other then buying a new harddrive.
