You will also find that sound is much better handled in 9X.
I prefer Windows 3.1 even better sound. I would suggest reformatting and going with a real
OS Windows 3.1 much better *** OS and like I said better sound. I found if you take
the wires from the speakers and attach them to the left two outer pins of you cpu then attach
your CPU to your motherboard it improves sound greatly.
and going with a real

People have just gone to XP. Since XP has replaced W9x, a lot of people have
gone to XP, not only the few weirdoes like myself that insisted on running
NT 4.0 at home. XP is NT ver 5.1 while W2k is NT ver 5.0.
There are probably slightly more incompatibility issues with W2k because
it's regarded a corporate OS, and they don't bother fixing incompatibility
issues for the few who runs games on it. But most issues will be solved,
because when the gamedevelopers fixes XP issues, it will most likely also
fix the same thing on W2k. And if MS fixes releases an compatibility patch,
it's easy to port the fixes to W2k, and hopefully they release the same or
similar patch a few weeks or months later for W2k.
I can see that there are reasons for choosing W98 over XP for ***, but I
really can't see there are any for choosing W2k over XP, whether it's for
*** or not.

You might as well go for XP as it really is only win2k with knobs on. Word
of warning though, don't touch Home edition go for PRO.

Well, except that I still get a lot of email about XP problems, I already
own W2k Pro (installed at work, now), I like to run the same OS on my home
computer and my kids' computer (makes life easier) and I'd have to buy 2
copies of XP to do that, and finally, I switch CPUs, memory and motherboards
often for testing, and I'd probably have hassles with XP registration.
Maybe XP is in my future, but I'm not ready for it right now.

And the old wives-tale that games run faster on 98 than 2K/XP was pretty
well demolished.
There ARE still compatibility problems, but since XP was released it's
become less and less of an issue.

Been running XP since the early betas, had a few problems back then.
Have not had a single problem or issue with XP since I purchased retail.
IMO its the best thing to come of Redmond yet, and I've thrown everything
at it hardware and software. None of the registration or compatibility issues have materialized.
I guess one could wait to use XP but wait much longer and XP will be outdated.
Should not be too much of a problem now with W2K with all the XP drivers available
which most can also be used in W2K, but.......... why?

W2K works fine for me. GPL, NASCAR2002, F12002. It's a real
pleasure after the crashes of W98.
