i installed win2k3 on my laptop earlier this year.. and I wouldn't update because it would tell me that I had an invalid key (which I did!)
and then I came across this russian keygen that made VLKs and windows update had no problems with it.
I also threw away my harddrive that day and switched to linux.
I have 110CT.. running debian aswell.. I for the life of me can't get it to recognize my wireless card.
however, kismet has no problem with the wireless card
I bought a actius 1800 not sometime ago. I have no idea what kind of material the casing is.. but it seems like plastic.. thing is.. that its cracking up and I have to use super glue to keep the cracks from growing.
I love it as a laptop, light & powerful.. just wish it was a bit more sturdy.
30 days max? my window 2k3 box has been up for 33 days now.. www.personal.utulsa.edu/~satwinder-singh/web_image s/uptime.gif
been hammering it everyday...
anyway.. I posted my list as a reply.. but for my work computer
windows 2003
Visual Studio.NET
MSDN
Photoshop
(the rest I build with the above)
I can't believe it worked! I got windows to run of a CD!
this is what I did..
1. I downloaded bart's boot CD.. 2. then I used my windows 1.1 (5x1.44) floppy disk set to install windows in a folder under the bart's boot cd folder.. 3. burned the cd using bart's instructions 4. booted to dos thru the cd, went to the windows folder and executed "win"
5. posted this message (from another computer)
Note: for some reason, I got my video card messed up.. couldn't decided to go for a XGA or a EGA and it corrupted that microsoft logo that shows on a blue screen in the beginning.
"I've had a W2K server box up (as in turned on continuously, running as a mail, file and print server) for over a year. It was brought down by a hardware failure, not the OS."
Dude, you sure it ran for over a year continously? By default, there is a bug in the TCP/IP that will reboot a computer if it has been up for 365 days. (there is a solution but it didn't comeout till sometime ago.. and to patch your machine, you would have had to reboot it anyway.) I have the TechNet KB number on my laptop's IE favorites.. will look it up and post it.

forgot to add: "from dos to windows in 2 seconds"

sorrie I wasn't clear.. the fourth screen looked like a text console screen with the taskbar (if thats what its called on linux) sliding into view
yup... thats a pretty insightful "desktop" :)
linux with 4 virtual desktops each imitating XP, 98, mac 9 and linux!
tried googlefight.com redhat 1st place.. with suse coming second..
hmm.. has to be the one I'm building..
another flavor of kernel-source-2.4.21_2.4.21.orig.tar.gz with a little bit of windows_2000_source_code.zip
