Monitoring Dial-Up Download Speeds ala Sysmon(Win9x) style?

chong

Hi, Win2000 has been running great on my system, though there's only 1 major thorn in the bush. It seems like System Monitor from Win9x is gone. I need the real time updated graphs of Sysmon for my dialup upload/download monitoring.

icons look like win95 and direct 3D doesn't work!

faro

Hi, my windows 2000 operated perfectly for 2 month. But yesterday I started the game Unreal Tournament (in glide-mode). After hours of happy playing and a shutdown. I bootet my computer today: Now the Icons in Windows 2k look like the old fashioned in Windows 95.

shouldn't a boot disk always work?

sang_drax8

Well i am running windows 2000 but recently decided it would be worth the hasle to reformat my ntfs partition and dual boot my computer so that i could load some of my more incompatable applications on to windows 98 and still use 2000 if desired.

Using shortcuts to do a keyboard command?

CeRbErO

Is it possible to have a normal Windows shortcut perform a keyboard command? E. g. when you click the shortcut, it would do the same thing as pressing ctrl+alt+f or whatever. Or is there some program that can do this?.

Question on Downgrade

RogueLeader

I installed Windows 2000 about a week ago, but I'm very disappointed in the Viper II drivers from S3, which are horrible. They over smooth fonts to make them unreadable in some cases, and I can only play Quake 3 now.

How to upgrade RC3 to final without pirating??? Strange

FrogMaster

Strange! My main machine is W2K final (paid for with hard-earned money). So far so good. . . I installed old RC3-2183 on my secondary machine because I didn't want to install the same version again because of licence/legal stuff.
