EddiE314
This is what I have come to undertand and is my opinion on the future of Operating systems, Feel free to leave your comments and opinions. Windows 2000 (NT5) is just the next generation OS after Windows NT 4, not Windows 98.

Win2k installs. Sigh.

Alright, a somewhat different question regarding getting Win2k back onto my box. I had a 98/NT/Win2k system, and I wanted to put Win2k (pro) over NT (server). Simple enough, I delete NT's WINNT dir, and get Win2k to install to that dir.
