HI FOLKS!!
I'm currently pretty darn pleased with the progress of win2k. I've gotten all my hardware working and i'm amazed, the system hasn't crashed even once!!!!
NO explorer.exe has preformed... or nothing!!
My system is the following:
CPU: Celeron 300@450mhz
RAM: 192MB (samsung)
HDD-IDE: 2x6,4gb 13,5gb 8,4gb
HDD-SCSI: 9,0gb
SCSICARD: Adaptec 2940uw
GFX: TNT 1
SND: SBLIVE 1024
NIC: 3C0M 3c905b-tx
TV: Miromedia PCTV/PCTV PRO
CDROM: Plextor 32x scsi
CDR: Panasonic 7502 scsi
ZIP: Iomega 100meg scsi
PRINTER: okidata 4w
Pointer: Logitec Mouseman (using standard drivers)
You belive that? All this stuff workin..
I've though not a flawless system, i'm currently disapointed with the following (not win2k's fault):
PRINTER drivers make the system take 100% cpu each 5sec if it's not activated.
TNT drivers aint optimized and i'm missing the options in displayproperties that win9x offers.
MIRO TV drivers aint giving radioFM support, slow channel changing and misc probs..
SBLIVE! doesn't have that great support from creative as of yet, but i guess it's just a matter of time!
This is all, Way go Win2000 rox's!
Let's just hope the software devolopers will support it like they do with win9x.
what is your experience with this new exciting OS?
Thanks all for reading this post
