Partition Magic (again)

richk
I have the partition magic 5. 01 upgrade and as far as I can tell under win2k, all you can do is make rescue disks to boot from. I thought the new fancy version ran in naive mode as it does under NT4.

Outlook with Dual boot.

rbarbier
What I would like to do is have Outlook look the same in Windows98 and 2000. Example: if I check my mail in Windows 2000 then when I go to Win98 I want the message to appear there also. I am using Outlook that came with Office 2000.

I'm wondering if anyone else is having the same problem I'm having. I have the ATI AiW 128 with 32MB of RAM. I installed both the beta drivers and the beta MMC. Everything except the TV Viewer functions perfectly.

Comments System Commander 2000?

sab3864
Has anybody tried this program? I'n thinking about it for 2 reasons. 1. I want to boot between win 2k and nt 4. 0 (just to keep as a backup), and linux, maybe BeOS if everything else goes good. 2. I've read on their website that it lets you make/resize partitions.

CDRW Software

eddymunster
I just spent $249 for a new Creative CDRW 8432 because I just upgraded my office server to Win2K Server and had an old SCSI burner. Guess what? NO damn Win2K compatible software. And its brand-new! Anyone know a workaround to this? Creative is no help! Thanks.

How to prevent Win2k from creating error logs?

Preacher
I´ve got a big problem with Windows 2000´s error log creation in case a program crashes. Since I never look into that logfile, I´d like to disable creating it, but chainging the options under System won´t prevent this.
