Help-I gave up on Win2000-went back to Win98
This is a discussion about Help-I gave up on Win2000-went back to Win98 in the Windows Hardware category; I really like the stability of Win2000, how ever my OS will only stay up and running a few weeks and then it crashes. I have had NTOSKRNL. EXE corrupt, and win2000 protection errors, where the system hangs at boot and reboots over and over.

anything overclocked? What kind of harddrive configuration? are any of ur hardddrives running off a attached pci ata66 controller?
I have also had a few problems, But the networking and routing support is far superior to anything else which can run games! does anyone know of problems with slow disk access using an Adaptec 2940UW and IBM 9Gb SCSI disk's ??
Do you know about which type of kernal you should use ?? I heard that the Athlon is based on Alpha technology?? would you have to run the Alpha version of Win2000??
No. There is no Alpha version of Windows 2000. It should run fine in the X86 versions. For Kernel you want to either use ACPI or Standard.
I went from 2000 to whistler beta to me and then to dos 6.1, dos seams to be the best in stability and the ease if it is great. i can play all my old games and type in edit. the only draw back is that i have to go to school to post on these boards. i consider my self kinda a hax0r in that i am l33t. oh well, if i get my dos internet browser i am programing in edit to work i will be all up and running.
Did u check all ur hardware drivers ? are dey all win2k updated?
Man, I have exactly the same probs.
I believe the issues are with the TNT2 drivers....
I installed a clean version of 2000 and then installed the Creative Labs 3.76 drivers, and that was all the wrote!
Rebooting all over the place and then it would just fal to boot...blue screen NTKernel errors etc.
At the moment everything is rock stable with the default video drivers...but no games for me!
L8r.

That's why you should install the latest NVIDIA drivers.
