HELP, Restored Win2k w/Drive Image, can't log in

ZoSo

I just restored my Dual boot setup using Drive Image. Everything went fine, no errors or anything, but I can't log into Win2k Pro. It accepts my password and I hear the little windows jingle then it says saving your data like I'm logging on as a different user.

[DivX] I've just about had it

MikeCh

I'm using a pretty average setup. P3 700 mhz, GeForce video card, Hercules Crystal Audio based sound card (Game Theater XP). And all goes well except for one thing, DivX. I have installed the codecs, which means, yes, the alpha too.

Practice Exams

Greetings, I was hoping that someone on this list could direct me to a source of some free MCSE practice exams. There seem to be a lot of study guides around, but not too much in the way of exams. Much appreciated.

WIN2K + games at startup

Metalheart

Hi , I heard somebody tell me , you're possible to play all the possible games you played on win98 even on win2k. The only thing you have to do is at startup , type in something and run it. . . . I don't know if it's true , but I would greatly believe it.

I am in love with my mouse pad.

Cardinal

Hi all. Just a post to ask about peoples opinions of mouse pads. I use a Microsoft intellimouse explorer USB and originally used it on a 3M precise mousing surface. That began to die so instead of replacing it (5th time) ;( I decided to invest in a decent mouse pad.
