I wanna upgrade my OS
« Reply #15 on: February 17, 2001, 10:32:20 AM »
codemaster: The 2 computer ethernet at my home uses MS ICS on Win98 (both systems).  Works perfectly fine, and was extremely easy to set up.  When I take my computer back home over breaks (which runs Win2k), the ethernet is still very easy to use and works like a dream.  Maybe you were using an old version of MS Internet COnnection Sharing?

I would say ICS is very accomplishable in Win98.

I agree with your ram assesment though.  I have 256mb of ram in my Win2k box right now, and I still crave more.  I can\'t imagine anything less...

Get Windows 2000.

If you play online games like counter-strike. Dont even look at ME.

If you play a LOT of obscure games then get Windows 98 (yeah, not ME). Otherwise get Win2K.

I play a ton of counter strike! Is ME bad for this? Cause if it is I\'m not even going to consider ME. Playing games is what I do the most on my PC.

Win 98 is fine for now. Just hold off until XP drops.

No. No matter which way you look at it ME is an improvement on 98 is almost every way.

Why are all you people flaming ME so much? Some of the things I\'ve heard some of you say are rediculous. For example someone said: "ME is a complete disaster."

You are putting people off ME. It may not be as stable as 2000 but its faster and has some nice features.






P.S.  XP is gonna suck a$$.

It sure is.

Eg. If you fire your weapon or move with lots of other players around your ping will jump up, with your hard drive going crazy.

With Windows 2000 with Service Pack 1 it runs Perfect.

Windows XP I dont know about this OS, though is based on the NT Kernal, it stills has 2 options that causes ME to be a resource hog. Being PCHealth and StateMGR. Even with these 2 taken off it still causes lag/decrease in performance.

If your hardware has all the drivers, by all means I recommend getting Windows 2000.

Damn Microsoft, why havent you accepted me as an offical beta tester :mad:
