My two cents to this: I have not had to reboot or shutdown my system since getting it installed and running the way I want it to be running. This includes Win2k and WinXP. I only shutdown on the weekends at work to save power < company policy >. At home, my Win2k box runs 24/7, as does my Linux gateway and my linux servers. I can game, do work, read email etc etc on the Win2k box. PIII 700 256MB 60Gig WD600BB drive Asus CUSL2-C 3Com 905C SamSung DVD Creative Labs TNT2 32MB AGP Toshiba CDRW 6x4x24
But, hey.. That's how my systems run. Someone else may have to reboot 4 times a day... But I think at that point they really need to check the system, something just is not right With their hardware. -----Original Message----- From: mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 4:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Mike Leone Subject: Re: [expert] oooops -OT- How often do you reboot your W2k machine? Not because it crashed or anything, just because?
