win2000 got pwnd
« on: 20 October 2005, 09:45 »
mum decided to swap power cords round while the family computer was running.

win2000 blue screens every time before it starts booting (even safe mode).

Everyone will have to use vector Linux now.  :thumbup:

Comes up with a Boot Device Innaccessable error. The message also references F: (which does not exist). I can mount the partition no problems from linux.

Hmm, lol I sorted out a triple boot of Windows 2000/XP and Slackware easily, just used the XP recovery console and re-added the boot partitions. :D

I've never had a problem with Windows 2000 at all, and I've been using it since 1999.

When I compared speed in general on XP and 2000, 2000 was at least 30% faster overall. :p

Great idea. Blow up the whole damn computer while you're at it. Aint no operating system on earth that fixes hardware failure.
On your way out of Microsoft Land feel free to smash a few Windows.

actually that's a light machine gun...

Here is an example of a heavy machine gun...or 2...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M2_machine_gun

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mk_19_grenade_launcher

The biggest part of what it takes to be called a heavy machine gun is it requiers a crew and can only be fired from platforms.

Any machine gun which can be held, loaded and fired accurately by a single person is not a heavy machine gun.

The M60 had a crew, but was still considered a light machine gun. It's new replacement...I think the M240E is considered light as well. The M249 is a damn good automatic rifle when maintained properly...

But, back on topic...I just wanted to point that out.

I have had less problems with 2000 pro, it's speed and reliablity than any other distro except maybe 3.1
