  1. i normally use XP Pro SP2 ... i can try it on a Win2k though ... do you want it in an existing installation? isn't xpize required ... but i think xpize is not for 2K? ;)

    I'm pretty sure it installs. You may get a coupla errors, but it should install. XP is really 2000 dressed up.

  2. No reason to call it crappy. Some people may have really good luck with a piece of hardware someone else thinks is crappy. Usually what happens now is you get one person in say a thousand, that don't like the hardware. They then freak and call it a piece of crap. Which, but no means, summarizes everyone's opinion. My brother has a 6800 and it runs a lot of things perfectly. By no means a crappy card.

    People expect way too much from certain things now-a-days :rolleyes:

  3. Some of my games won't even launch under Vista. I had to go and look for updates for a few (none available for a lot of them). Midtown Madness was relatively easy to get going, I downloaded an update for it for Windows XP. That seemed to do it.

  4. Seems Microsoft improved a few things but messed up a few things at the same time. You just can't win with Microsoft.

    They have made great strides ahead, but many back. For instance, disk defrag. No more graphical layout of the drive, just tells you what it thinks.

  5. It's still warez. And talking about those things will most likely get you banned.

    1. This is not a warez site! Links/Requests to warez and/or illegal material (porn, cracks, serials, etc..) will not be tolerated. Discussion of circumventing WGA/activation/timebombs/keygens or any other illegal activity will also not be tolerated. You will be banned without notice.

    Read the RULES.

  6. Dead. I haven't used one in 2 years. None of my laptops have a floppy drive (that works) in them. My new laptop doesn't have one, and nor did my last one. I could put one in it, but it was 20 bucks to buy the drive, and thats 20 bucks more than I'd spend on something I'll never use :P

    I still have all my floppies upstairs in my room though, big bin of em. But I never use em, so I'm contemplating donating them to my school or something. Maybe I'll keep 10 or so, but I don't know.

  7. I did not mean warez.

    Thought he maybe has some connections ...

    Better than trying to remove SP2, we all know that means trouble.

    I doubt it's illegal for anyone to use their on key if they download right clean version.

    Afterall it's the license not the CD that you buy!

    Kelsenellenelvian or any other mod, delete my double post :)

    Please :rolleyes:

    Even apart from it being illegal, it's still not a good idea. The media/ISO could be riddled with malware.

    If you have a way that works, stick with it :)

  8. I'm running Vista Home Basic on the laptop in my signature. It boots in around 35 seconds. It's not that long to boot at all for me. However, once it's at the desktop. It gets a little slow for about 1 minute or so, then it picks back up and is alright.

    My Celeron M 430 1.73GHz runs it pretty good IMO

  9. Realistically, it doesn't matter if its on or off for most people. It teaches them the wrong thing, just to keep clicking "OK or Allow" or anything like that. What happens if something bad does actually come along?

    For the most part, the power users just irritated with it and turn it off anyway. If you do a lot of things on your computer, it's probably necessary that you disable it as it just slows you down really.
