Win2k vs WinXP

jwl812
Anyone have any facts relating on how WinXP stacks up against Win2k. I've heard many arguments for both OS's but can't find any constructive or tangible evidence to pursuade me to go with one or the other.

Well, this certainly qualifies as "Other"...

It looks like I am going to be a dad. I just found out this evening, and she is going to the hospital on Monday to confirm it, but we are pretty sure. So I thought I would tell you guys. .

How to find all static IP addresses in use

mabuhay
How can I find all static IP addresses in use on Windows NT server? We have several printers and PCs with static addresses, but they are not in the Reservations list, and do not show up in the Active Leases because they don't use DHCP.

spontaneous reboot

nutsadamus
Hi all, I made the very stupid suggestion to a friend that i help build him a computer. It worked fine for 3 days and then started randomly rebooting itself. The reboot is accompanied by an audible click, as if a breaker is switching on the motherboard.

Gateway Voodoo3 1000 drivers?

Mekadave
Yes, that's correct, a Voodoo 3 1000. A friend of mine wants to upgrade her Gateway from Win98SE to Win2k, and it came with this tweaked-down Voodoo 3 that 3dfx made for Gateway way back when. Apparently Gateway doesn't offer any NT/2k/XP drivers for it, so I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any reasons w ...

Windows 2000 - SP3 Feedback -Post here

hardwarecrazy
1. Looks like the installation is smooth and I did not experience any issues so far, on W2KS. 2. I read somewhere (with a screen shot) that talks about a change in the Control Panel, Add Remove programs that adds something called Set Program Access and Defaults, included in SP3.

Overclocking

embj
I have an HP Pavilion Xt983 and a 540n. I was wondering if they could be overclocked. The XT983 has an HP Santa Fe mobo in it which I believe was made by that crappy Korean company, Trigem and has 5 visible jumpers on it.

Stable Voodoo3 3000 Win2k Drivers?

Metallisoft
Anyone have this combo that found stable drivers? Specificially for Descent 3's 3dfxGlide. Or even XP? The drivers that came with 2k, Descent3 doesn't even register Glide. I have a LAN today, and I just wiped my 2k and XP clients and reverted back to 98se.

Freeze by resolution change?

ConQueso
Got a problem. Tried canning video and audio acceleration, tried ACT 1. 5, no dice. Had an HD problem, and restored my W2K install with Ghost. Now UT takes about 15-30 seconds to change screen resolution, and Age of Empires 2 (fresh install, latest patch) just plain goes black after the intro movies.
