I am a computer dummie, but with this upgrade from Windows 98 to
Windows 2000 it took me seven minutes to complete the process.
My old IBM 600X laptop was not of much use running Windows 98. Windows 2000 does not make it a powerhouse, but it runs just fine for my 10 years old grandson and I don't have it cluttering up my closet.
For me it was a good choice. |

| If you have a windows computer from between 1998 and 2001, this is a great upgrade. Most hardware and software today works with at least Win 2000, and Win 2000 gives you the great security and stability of Win XP, without hogging your memory or hard drive. I put it on an old Compaq Presario 1255 from 1999 which originally had Win 98. It works great. Win 2000 is a great way to keep your old computer around for a few more years. |

I love this operating system. I had an old compaq computer from 1998. It came with Windows 98. Which is very crash prone. Everytime we would insert a disc, we would get the BSOD. It was so annoying. We put up with it until I got pissed off with it and asked my friend if I could use his Windows 2000 disc. He gave it to us and we installed it. It worked like a breeze. No crashes. We were able to put in cds without a problem. It was so great that we went out and bought our own copy. Windows 98 would freeze up a lot. With Windows 2000, it would work flawlessly without any problems. It is one of the best microsoft OS's ever made. XP is good for a few extra features. But it ran slow on my old laptop, so I install 2000. So if you are looking for a lightweight, flawless and better system then 98, I recommend this. Especially for older computers that want a good OS.
BTW, don't get me started on ME or Vista. They were horrible. Maybe I can recommend vista.... in a few years. I hope this helps you. |
