Plz HELP ME... need a little tweak with services....

Recommended Posts

Hey can you help me?

 

I will install Win2k PRO in my home machine cause im sick of Win9x Kernel crashing.

 

So heres is my machine:

 

Pentium III 450@558 mhz

Asus P3V4X (Via chipset)

256mb RAM (NEC 133 mhz)

HD Quantun lct (26GB)

Creative Labs Annihilator Pro (geforce ddr)

SB Live! Value

Cambridge Soundworks FPS2000

Microsoft InteliMouse Optical

Microsoft Natural Keyboard

LG StudioWorks 17"

Iomega ZiP Drive (100mb Paralllel)

Creative Infra 52x

US Robotics 56kpbs (PnP mode)

Microsoft Force Feedback

Epson Stylus 600

 

-------------

 

Now my questions:

1. Any problems and/or incompatibility problems with my PC components?

 

2. I know that VIA chipset need a patch, wich comes with SP2 if i download the BETA right?

 

3. Wich video driver is best? 7.xx or 6.xx or Creative 6.34 fasttrax for Win2k?

 

4. I have a 26gb hd, if i install Win2k in partition "D", levaing "C" for winme, win2k will create and use "Program Files" in partition "D" without touching "C"?

 

 

And most important of all

 

5. Can you tell me what services I can disable to make it faster?

I only use this machine for GAMES (lots)n MUSIC (mp3) and Internet (using Dial-Up Networking).

 

THANKS in advance

 

bye.
