Windows XP Appearance

PeeWee-2k
I turned my computer on today to find that the Windows XP theme had been changed to the Windows classic theme without me doing it, which i thought was weird. Then i went to switch it back, and found out the the Windows XP setting in the Appearance tab of the desktop properties has gone.

NT 4.0 and 2000 Dual Boot?

nT4usB
Can NT 4. 0 and 2000 be installed as a dual boot? I'd like to spend some time getting to know 2000 before I install it on all our workstations. I don't really want to blow out NT on my machine just yet.

Erasing a Hard-drive

jwl812
Anyone know of a good hard-disk erase utility. I don't want to just re-format, I want to completely wipe it out then re-format. .

CD-ROM Issues

mr_teddybear
Ok, here is the deal. I am running an AMD Duron 700 with 128mb ram on an Asus (can't remember the exact model) mobo. When running Win98, Linux, hell any other OS besides Win2000 and WinXP my CD-Writer on my secondary IDE channel is picked up perfectly.

All users not working?!

John Miller
I have no idea what happened with this, but suddenly a bunch of my icons disappeared from the start menu and desktop. After a bit of investigation, I realized the files in All Users are no longer showing up.

pascal
hi, i 've got a problem with windows 2000 advanced server. When i even install with the minimum of hardware, windows 2000 is running with 100 % cpu usage process: 'system' (not system idle process) after installing sp2, before restarting, the system idle process becomes 100 % for about 2 minutes.
