Haven't you noticed that all of the questions asked here are all about Windows 2000 and the errors it has or is given out to people. Some games don't work, hardware doesn't work, BSOD, illegal operations, sudden changes in the OS. Just goes to show that the OS isn't very good. I "was" using Windows 2000 awhile ago and got rid of it because it simply stinks. I rather have better compatibility in return for the odd error or two, then have a stable OS and nothing working right. That's why it's stable, cause they made sure next to nothing works on it, they "babied" it to get it working right. Crappy apps, games and hardware support, but it's stable. Now i like Windows 2000 because of it's features, but if w2k is not going to run programs well then forget it. There was only 1 program, one that i use a lot, called RPGMaker 95. I was done testing all of my games and apps with windows 2000 and discovered they all ran, last proggy on the list was RPG Maker, go to start it, doesn't work. Because of 1 program not running, which happened to be the one i use a lot, i had to uninstall windows 2000.
 
edit!!
although I don't believe this anymore, it's still funny to see this post. I shouldn't have edited it, oh well...lol

Man, you must have lotsa problems using win2k, i format and reinstall every 6 months or more just because i like a fresh install of an OS.

I do it every month and a half or so...
mostly out of boredom
 
this last time, my mouse was giving me problems(switched from the Intellimouse Explorer to a Razer Boomslang and the MSIE drivers wouldn't uninstall properly, I was installing NT4 server on another machine, and thought what the hell).
 
 
I'm down to 4 hours in restore time, from booting off CDROM, to being back exactly where I was before.

My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

Ditto that. I will reinstall Win2K on my home box for just about any reason I can think of. Then again, having your own server and another workstation at home makes it a lot easier to keep things from being lost forever.
