I don't mean to piss everyone off..........

Haven't you noticed that all of the questions asked here are all about Windows 2000 and the errors it has or is given out to people. Some games don't work, hardware doesn't work, BSOD, illegal operations, sudden changes in the OS.

Haven't you noticed that all of the questions asked here are all about Windows 2000 and the errors it has or is given out to people. Some games don't work, hardware doesn't work, BSOD, illegal operations, sudden changes in the OS. Just goes to show that the OS isn't very good. I "was" using Windows 2000 awhile ago and got rid of it because it simply stinks. I rather have better compatibility in return for the odd error or two, then have a stable OS and nothing working right. That's why it's stable, cause they made sure next to nothing works on it, they "babied" it to get it working right. Crappy apps, games and hardware support, but it's stable. Now i like Windows 2000 because of it's features, but if w2k is not going to run programs well then forget it. There was only 1 program, one that i use a lot, called RPGMaker 95. I was done testing all of my games and apps with windows 2000 and discovered they all ran, last proggy on the list was RPG Maker, go to start it, doesn't work. Because of 1 program not running, which happened to be the one i use a lot, i had to uninstall windows 2000.
 
edit!!
although I don't believe this anymore, it's still funny to see this post. I shouldn't have edited it, oh well...lol

Good job Toby, props to noticing that its edited. I gotta find a harder one. the only problem is, most poeple don't know what various inf's look like, maybe post small pics from the registry and ask what key it is.

Guess the INI, (easy one):
 
[boot loader]
timeout=10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional 2195.1" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows Whistler Personal 2257.1" /fastdetect
C:\="Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition 3000.2"

damned right easy
 
boot.ini
 
 
speaking of ini files and the such...
 
are the io.sys and msdos.sys still important? or are they leftovers from my initial fat32? Are they safely deletable

i've been wondering the same about half the files in my root dir and such, there needs to be a list of crap files that you can trash. I'll look around on the web sometime.
