RC3 Set Back??

Ekstreme
Yet to be posted to NTBeta, Microsoft is not expected to deem the new beta build of Windows 2000 Release Candidate 3 (RC3). Contrary to what was mentioned earlier by ********. Com, Microsoft has only decided to post another build for beta testing before RC3.

Logitech Quickcam Home USB problems (long...I need help)

BaronKen
I have W2K RC2 build 2128. 192MB ram, etc. I put the Quickcam CD in and it autoplays and generates an error file right away. Ok, so I run the setup. exe file and it starts installing. Now it asks me to plug in the camera, which causes W2K to start installing the camera drivers, etc.

ISDN Problems

CyberDyne Systems
I am having a problem using my ISDN device in Win2k. The ISDN TA is a Zyxel ISDN omni. net LCD. When I try to connect to my isp with both B-channels (128kbit), the connected tray icon shows that I am connected in 64kbps, although I have declared in the modem protocol that I want 128kbps and both channels enabled.

All-in-Wonder Pro & NetMeeting

leonardt
I have several machines running RC2 with All-in-Wonder Pro video adapters. There seems to be no support for any of the AIW features except the display. I need to use NetMeeting. The device manager indicates the presence of WDM TV tuner, TV Audio, Video Audio Crossover Bar and Video Capture For AIW.

Loading a hardware profile

Ekstreme
Is there anyway to get 2k to forcefully load a hardware profile without it detecting hardware each boot? EG my modem will not work unless it's turned on at bootup, same for my printer. .
