Lately I've had some serious glitches with my gaming computer, and as a
temporary network troubleshooting effort as much as anything, installed a couple
of games on my work computer as a control test. As it turns out, this measure
may be more than temporary, as this machine seems to not only clear up the
problem I was addressing, and plays everything I've tried so far flawlessly, in
spite of this machine's use of Windows 2000 Professional, which Microsoft
readily admits is not very well suited for game playing. Go fig.
R.I.P.: Bee Gees singer Maurice Gibb dies. Thanks ZigZang.
| Play Time: | Inter - Face. Thanks Sharon. |
| Link of the Day: | Rocking horse toilet. Thanks John Coke. |
| Image of the Day: | Frodo's Failure. Thanks Peter Woronko. But we can still see him!? |
Having tried both, I have left XP on my main games playing machine. I like some of the features it has, and I turned off everything else. Personally, I took the short time to get things sorted just how I like it, and I have never had a problem with this OS, so it's here to stay.
MS really did screw up somewhat when they named the next business OS (and continuation of it's NT line) 'Windows 2000', having gone 95, 98, 98SE, most would assume that 2000 comes next. Still, not even billions of dollars can buy you common sense.
