Which OS for this rig ????????

[ribbony]

On my new rig I need to decide if I should stay with W98 or run W2000pro. I have tried W2000pro but am not so sure that it is what I need at the moment. Here is the scenario:

Duron 1.1
Epox ep-8kta3L+
192mb RAM
40gig drive
CD-RW
CD Rom

I use it for the NET, word processing and Digital Still photography.

Like user controll !

Any suggestions ?

If all the software you want to use runs in Win2000, I'd go that route since it will do a better job of managing your 192MB of ram as well as being more stable O/S than Win98.

Yep, 2000Pro rocks. Ditch 98 as fast as you can.

Win2000

just so you know, noone here is going to vote for win98 sinec your specs will handle win2k very well.

Just in case you´re still in doubt; Win 2000. Definitely. It simply can´t crasch.

Win98 should only be used as a very last resort, unless you're some sort of masochist.

Affirmative > Win98 sucks.

Thanks for the responses. I will go with Win 2000 Pro, I have just loaded the srevice pack 2 and it seems to have helped some of the glitches.

Nothing ventured, Nothing gained !
