I've compiled this 2 days ago. It's about 2.95M compressed. Lemme know if you want. It GREATLY helps game compatibility under Windows 2000/Whistler. (It can be installed under both.) I would send to Phillip for download straight from NTCompatible but since this package contains files from the Beta of Whistler I'm not sure if that would be allowed.
WHAT IS THE WHISTLER APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY TOOLKIT?
This package is a compilation of files from the Whistler Beta 2 2462 CD, the Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit and the installed Whistler files from \Windows,\Windows\SYSTEM32, and \WINDOWS\APPPATCH.
This program is for both Windows 2000 and Windows Whistler. Why would you want to use this program on Windows Whistler? The Whistler Application Compatibility Toolkit consolidates all the tools you need to easily fix an application. Windows Whistler standalone does not have all of the tools in one place and is not very informative on how to fix your own programs.
WHY
I compiled this package because I was tired of Microsoft not up[censored] their Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit (The Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit is a program release by Microsoft that applies specific fixes to programs so that the programs can work under Windows 2000. These fixes basically translate commands that are different in Windows 2000 from Windows 9x,NT) and instead focusing their time on Windows Whistler. ALOT of people bought Windows 2000 expecting their programs to work. Many don't. Well with this program they do! I have the feeling that Microsoft will not update the Application Compatibility in Windows 2000 as often as they do in Windows Whistler because they of course want the $$$$. With the included files you will have the same level of Application Compatibility in Windows 2000 as you do in Windows Whistler!
Here's a good example of how outdated the Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit is:
Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit=5/24/2000
Whistler Application Compatibility Toolkit=3/20/2001
Windows 2000 Application Compatibility Toolkit=70 fixes
Whistler Application Compatibility Toolkit=160 fixes
