Hollywood Plus conflict with my Office XP Pro...

dcxman
Morning all. I recently did a clean install of Win2K Pro. Prior to that I had WinME which for the most part ran quite well despite public opinion experiences. To say the least I had to load Win2K on for certain apps I needed that would only work with Win2K.

GeForce 2 MX 400 woes
