Performance degrading over time in GTA 3

Curley_Boy

I have a problem with GTA 3. . . after it's been running for about an hour or so it starts to get really slow and jerky (HDD gets accessed alot). Before I start it I always close down all progs/background & taskbar apps and non essential services etc and defrag the HD.

NEC MultiSpin 4Xc (CDR-c302)

fgreene

I have a NEC Multispin CDR-c302 (SCSI device) that I have used with an Adaptec 2940 adapter under Win95, Win98, & WinNT. I want to move to W2k; however, W2k will not recognize the NEC. When W2k boots it loops during the recognition phase.

Server Attacks Stump Microsoft

Christianb

After reading this article I find it more than a little funny that Microsoft is unable to tell why specific Windows 2000 systems are being hacked. They don't know whether an old vulnerability is being exploited, because they can't tell whether or not all the existing security patches have been installed.
