Why don't you just come out and tell us how you really feel about windows?

[Christy]

That was quite annoying

[ashben]

So what made you stop?!?!

[is0lized]

i downloaded WinLinux 2000 and installed it, no problem when i tried to do a boot up it said i needed MS Dos, i have ms dos prompt but no MS Dos, Because Windows Me sucks (it has no MS Dos Mode) so i couldnt add linux

so i uninstalled Win Me back to 98SE and guess what happened? all my file got deleted, what i didnt know is when you un install me all the files you had when you upgraded gets deleted, so there went 15 gigs in files, games, personal docs, mp3s and such ( i have MOST of it saved on CDRW but not all) so now all my files are gone

when i booted up 98SE it said i had no operating system installed so i booted up again, and same thing, so i installed win ME again since i dont have the 98 disk so now i am back, no files and no linux, so basically i hate windows right now

we don't really care. go buy a mac and see how far you get.

[Webdude]

I could have told you WeanieME sucks...LOL...at least you were one of the lucky ones that was able to uninstall it...

[Coolin]

Any person knows that if you uninstall Windows all your files get deleted. Or so I though until now...

You'd be surprised Coolin. I heard this one kid asking somebody else in my computer science class how he could get his files back from the format he did on his c drive.

I'm still waiting for the money to get one, wouldn't mind going to me one would you? for free? :)

[Gayowulf]

Yeah windos is lacking. at the moment it seems to be self destructing. i get a multitude of errors and warnings everytime i start up. not to mention the bsods...


i think my computer needs an excorsist... who was that that who got the priest certificate from that site?

[keith]

that's funny, i never have a problem with windows. of course, i keep my files organized, and know what's installed where. just gotta know what you're doing i guess.

[}:8) Supermoo]

I could flame you for hours on that comment keith, and I'd imagine many other readers could too.

I'd strongly reccomend you change the wording, because someone might get the impression that Windows is stable! Argh! ;)

I hardly have problems with Windows :)

I have 2 computers, WindowsME installed on both of them, I've formatted both of them, reinstalled WinME, etc. the whole works and no problems at all. (btw, i formatted one cuz it was an old computer and I decided to do fdisk and format, and formatted the new one because I made a mistake and screwed up Windows).

My sister recently bought a new computer and has been getting errors after errors, so I formatted that one too and reinstalled the programs she needed, absolutely no problems now.

Windows is tricky, it's definitely not "stable", I would much rather have a Mac like Supermoo, but Windows still does the trick and I won't complain :)

[Mandrake]

Windows Millenium is very stable as long as you have enough memory and don't screw with it! :)

[Coolin]

If you don't screw with Windows, it's even worse than having it crashing!

I had a similar experience with one of my classmates. This guy comes up to me and says he wants to clean up his hd, but he doesn't know how to format it, so he askes me, and I told him. The next day he comes up to me and says his computer's dead. Turns out he didn't make a boot-up disk.

Later I found out that all he really wanted to do was reinstall 95 (yeah, I know... I was real shocked too). What a smart guy. And he also told me that he's lost the reg code, but I'm like whatcha need the reg code for anyways now that your computer's bust? *lol* Crazy kid......

So basically, from what I gathered from the above statement, you're implying that you can get Windows to appear stable by simply reinstalling it? Cool... I'll make sure I install Win2k (or ME) twice once I get it.

[Gayowulf]

Well my computer (windows mainly) is FUBAR. what do you suggest i do? format right?

[keith]

yeah, just need to know what the heck you're doing. my original statement stands.

[atlas]

Wipe windows off and put linux on it.... that's what I suggest :)

[Epgs]

put a version of windows whistler or xp (now) it is very stable. i have left my computer on for 2 months without a reboot and no problems. i have found 2000 to be pretty stable too

[Coolin]

The problem with installing Windows Whistler or XP is that it's not out yet! And being a beta testing is almost impossible. Unless you do something that's not good, you won't get it.

Whats the diff. between Windows ME and Windows XP?

Also, the XP Operating System will be based on the solid NT core instead of the unstable DOS core Win9x/Me uses. This translates to less crashes.

XP will be sold in two versions, Personal and Business. Need I explain that? ;)
