HELP!!! How big should Win2000 Professional be

Mine is bigger :) My winnt directory is over 1G and the system32 is over 500mb. I have a boatload of apps installed though. If you just have win2k and nothing else installed that sounds wrong, but if you have apps installed it is just fine.

slow intranet speeds

Use NetBEUI on your local lan instead of IPX (read: delete IPX and install NetBEUI). IPX has a lot of overhead you do not need!!!

Soyo or Asus or Abit
