207468 2004-01-15 06:35:00 win 2k need a computa that is waay more powerful than mine. nt4 is good enuf Megaman (344)
207469 2004-01-15 06:44:00 nah stick in some more ram and u can run 2k on nething. Just yesterday a friend installed 2k on a Cyrix 200mhz with 96mb RAM. He reckons it runs way better than 98SE he had on it previously. I know theres a slight difference in speeds but those Cyrix chips were never top preformers. Everybody seemed to be reckonmending ME at the start of this thread, and 2k whoops the pant off ME. Pete O'Neil (250)

207471 2004-01-15 07:15:00 I have Win2000Prof on my modest PentiumPro200S, (98 Meg ram) dual booted with Win98SE. It works with no problems and I now almost always use 2K rather than 98SE even though the older o/s was my main C drive boot up. Just a little longer to get started and shut down.

207472 2004-01-15 08:34:00 Ive run Win2K on a Laptop I used to have.. P120Mhz w/48MB RAM

Was good for playing MP3's, surfing etc, but try and open MS-Office or Lotus notes (Or even both at the same time!) and it'd take its time obviously... Win2K can be made faster than Win98 if you really kill off all the un-needed services!
