Win2K--- equivalent of Win98SE 'msconfig'?

I like this program: StartupCPL There is a version of MSCONFIG that works with Win2K; it was taken from a beta of WinXP. But this is even better for controlling which programs run when Windows boots. However, if you would like to check out both of them: MSCONFIG Toejam31

Elsa videocard drivers .................. When will we see an update ?

There's no reason that you can't use the reference nVidia drivers for your card. I've often used Elsa drivers with different nVidia cards. When I first purchased and installed my GF3 back in the early part of May, there was nothing available for the card on the nVidia site, and so, I ran the...

Virtual memory prob

Try setting it to 384/768. The default setting is the amount of your RAM +1/2, and the maximum is twice that number. For example, I've got 512MB of RAM. So my default paging file size is ... minimum: 512+256=768; and the maximum: 768+768=1536. 768/1536. Toejam31
