Integrating Hotfixes into Win2k CD?

ncfoster

Can one do something similar to the SP2 updated Win2k install CD with the individual hotfixes? I have an NCR/LSI-based SCSI card, and Win2k SP2 without the latest hotfix for this problem has difficulty booting, quickly, at least.

Is the KYRO II video card any good mainly under win2k ?

imtim83

Backing up CD track listings from Media Player

BladeRunner

I used to use the CD Player for any audio CD's I played on my PC. However the automatic download of CD tracks doesn't seem to work now - I have this feeling they are moving the whole show over to Media Player which does seem to work.
