oh yeah will do

We have a machine at home with xp though, and its going a bit slow at the mo

I was wondering if its vulnerable cos it hasn't got service pack 2 on it. It could have a virus I suppose. I would have thought norton would find that though :s

- Even 2000 is probably a bit old now ... (General Chat) - bjt, Jan 6, 10:03:15
  - Stick with 2000 cos XP is utter shite (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 10:37:47
- Windows 98 doesn't support USB, IIRC. (General Chat) - BeverlyHills0201, Jan 6, 10:03:14
  - You are correct sir. But Win 98 release 2 ( or something) does support USB. (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jan 6, 10:17:09
    - Ahh that makes sense (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:21:54
      - Yeah, sounds like the other machine is the newer version of Win 98. Do you want me to see (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jan 6, 10:26:00
        
        I have, if you need. (n/m) (General Chat) - Arganth, Jan 6, 10:26:46
        
        I've just nabbed a copy of win 2k off ebay for a ?10 (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:27:27
        
        Rightho. (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jan 6, 10:30:24
        
        Agreed. Still not as good as XP though. (General Chat) - Arganth, Jan 6, 10:32:34
        
        can anyone tell me if service pack 2 is a lot better these days? (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:36:17
        
        Personally - I'd stick to Win2k. (n/m) (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jan 6, 10:41:37
        
        Any chance you could accidentally find a copy of SQL Server 2K lying around, is there? (General Chat) - BeverlyHills0201, Jan 6, 10:51:35
        
        Always a chance. (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jan 6, 10:57:21
        
        oh yeah will do (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:44:36
- Get yourself an upgrade copy of XP - it's only about ?50. (General Chat) - Arganth, Jan 6, 09:58:28
  - can't you only put that on one machine though? (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 09:59:49
    - In theory. (General Chat) - Arganth, Jan 6, 10:00:52
      - I don't understand (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:02:02
        
        You can use it as many times as you like. (General Chat) - Arganth, Jan 6, 10:05:26
        
        oh (General Chat) - pants, Jan 6, 10:17:11
