Windows 2000 has for an extremely long time remained my favorite operating system. However, I've lately been getting very irritated by it. Putting aside the fact that I cannot get Corel VideoStudio X5 to work on it which I use on a daily basis, I'm experiencing a ton of explorer.exe crashes and it's getting very frustrating. Sometimes it only takes minimizing a window or switching to another program to make it critical stop, close, and reopen. I used to deal with a very sluggish explorer on occasion which doesn't seem to happen very much anymore but now explorer coming to its knees at least 10 or more times a day is making me think about upgrading to at least Windows XP. It's something I really don't want to have to do because I much prefer Windows 2000 to the bloatware that has become Windows these days and I love that it doesn't require activation of any sorts. But this is a problem that I can't take much more of. I should have logs in the event viewer if anyone is interested in seeing them if they wish to assist me. But to top it off I'm using the latest UURollup v11 from tomasz86 which is the November daily version (but it's been doing this longer than just this release) and all other major updates that I know about. Other than that, nothing has really changed about the system I use software or hardware related. I noticed now that once in a while I seem to get a bit of a flicker on both monitors when I watch a YouTube video or use a Java based application. So yeah, that's where I'm at right now.
