OK step one to remove the 120 time bomb

1. Go to your nearest computer store.
2. Pick up another stick of ram.
3. Go home and install it.
4. Go back to the pc store.

This is not an answer to the warez request, but it might be usefull for everyone who owns the 120-Day Version and an Upgrade Version of Windows 2000.

Upgrading the W2k Eval Version does not remove the timebomb. It you want to remove it go to
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/default.asp and get the patch from the "Windows 2000 Evaluation Upgrade Utility" Section.

This is NOT a way to remove the timebomb without having the right to upgrade to W2k (you have to own a previos Version of Windows)

hope that helps

Here is my solution:
1/Train yourself to W2K for 120 days
2/While learning, spare the money to buy a retail copy (4 months should be OK)
3/You are done
4/You feel better.
