Answer» <html><body><p>I have never used windows 2000.So, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/feed-11777" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FEED">FEED</a> me.Give me the knowledge.<br/><br/>Is it good folks? I Intend to use it on Dell optiplex Gx110 small form desktop.<br/><br/>P-III 667 mhz ,128Mb ram,7.6 GB HD.<br/><br/>Thanks for any imput.<br/><br/>RobertWell Windows ME was released just five months after and XP within a year, so they must have something to hide? Though from personal experience; no I have not used Windows 2000 so unfortunately I can not help.<br/><br/>I've heard, and the Wikipedia article on the OS enforces that it is especially prone to viruses and worms.<br/><br/>Maybe if you had the Service Pack 4 Revision 1 it would help?<br/><br/>If you can get it I'd just go with XP.From when I used it, it was very good, pretty similar to XP in looks (with XP in Classic, that is) but less demanding on the hardware.<br/>I didn't use it all that much though, it was sort of 6 years ago so I can't remember too much about it.<br/>From what I've heard from others it is one of the best MS has created in stability and performance.So, you started that at 10 years old Calum.<br/><br/>I first started on computers when I was 42 years<br/>old.<br/><br/>Anyway thanks for the imput friend...... Before Windows 2000 I had been destroying . . . erm . . . working with . . . Windows 95 from 1996-1999, and Windows 98 from 1999 to 2003/2004.<br/>Windows 2000 came at school in 2001/2002 I guess, not for long though because they changed to XP, as did we at home in 03/04 from Win98.<br/>Sorry for the long explanation, just explaining . . . something or other, COL.I've been using 2000 Pro since it came out in...well...2000 I have a couple of offices I set up using it and a lot of banks I see use it.<br/><br/>Personally, I don't plan to change as it does 99% of what I want it to do. I'm behind a hardware firewall, use AntiVir & the standard AS stuff with no problems. System very, very rarely locks up. <br/><br/>Running SP4 with the rollout / 512M RAM & 80G hdd's (2).<br/><br/>Works for me <br/><br/>Alan <>< In my opinion the most stable OS MS ever released...i cannot remember the last time i saw a BSOD.<br/>And as my primary testbench machine it gets tons of stuff thrown at it from BETA software to trial programs to test utilities...just keeps purring along.<br/>One thing noticable though is for some reason it doesn't always release RAM after heavy tasking as well as XP or Vista. I find that if it's been running around 3 days <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/straight-633156" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about STRAIGHT">STRAIGHT</a> it will slow a little. Nothing a quick re-boot doesn't fix though.<br/><br/>It likes a defrag about every 3 weeks or so as well. Other than that i think you'll be pleasantly suprised.yah i actually like win2k it is very stable and has good driver support. Good luck let us know how it turns out.Thanks everyone.I am gonna try it.I did a read up on 2000<br/>and it didn't have near the system requirements XP had.<br/><br/>So,I thought it would run faster on my 2 Dell computers I <br/>just bought from E-Bay to experiment with.<br/><br/>I know that the GX110 has a good track record for those who<br/>maintained them.<br/><br/>Anyway, $100.00 including shipping wasn't a great loss to toy<br/>with other operating systems.<br/><br/><a href="https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=011&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=320127011102&rd=1&rd=1">Here-They-Are..COL!</a>They look so cute side by side... <br/><br/>GX1_Man will be excited...<br/><br/>Grab some <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/extra-447191" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXTRA">EXTRA</a> RAM for those bad boys and you'll be a happy camper.Well,I am posting with Windows 2000 pro right now.<br/><br/>Wonder why they ever made XP.<br/><br/>Thanks to everyone for your advice.<br/><br/>Oh!My Preeccious! Windows 2000 Pro.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Bwahahaha!<br/><br/>Congrats on gettin up and running...i think you'll find as time goes on you'll appreciate it even more.<br/>XP had some more advanced features for home and office networking and added security measures that most want to know how to switch off more than anything but Win2K isn't missing much in side by side comparisons...<br/>Did you send a pic to GX1_Man ? ?<br/>As i said he' should be excited you've had twins !<br/><br/>Welcome aboard steet1 <br/>I think M$ brought out XP in the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hope-25911" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HOPE">HOPE</a> that everyone would bypass W2K when they realised what a good OS it was & they were giving it away for free</p></body></html> | |
