I agree johnwill:

X-teq tweak utility is the most versatile tweaker I have come across. So many small problems that people post could be fixed with X-Setup. I wish more people would sing its praise and spread the word.

Please don't type in all caps. It signifies yelling and is considered rude.

J/K
I have X-SETUP, never really needed it for anything though.

There's nothing ruder that a 13 yr old know-it-all brat!

But seriously B: You don't find any use for X-Teq? I am surprised, as this will tweak hundreds of OS settings. But then again you operate that MS dinosaur called ME!

Oh great! You have "upgraded" to a 5 year old OS! Nothing like keeping on top of things B!

Its better than Longhorn! Maybe its only buggy because its in alpha and MS hasnt had time to fix the bugs yet. Im sure it will be perfectly stable by the final release! &lt/sarcasm&gt

In rereading the entire thread Mariusz also claims to have W2K with MSCONFIG included. This is indded a mystery! I have SP2 installed so it didn't come with that upgrade. How about SP3? TW56 is a very knowledgable W2K user and I know for a fact that he has SP2 also and he doesn't have MSCONFIG. In fact, he is the one that showed me the third party Startup app I mentioned above. I would like to hear from more W2K users on this issue.

Maybe they upgrade from win98 to win2k. Win2k uses an WinNT directory so during the upgrade it would NOT write over the existing Windows directory. Therfore leaving msconfig accesable

Maybe! Ron

Final release from MS??
I'm still waiting for the final release of Windows 95
Let's see, we had Win95, Win95A, Win95B, Win95C, Win95D....
Oh yeah, someone just told me, MS DID come out with the final release of Win95.....they just renamed it XP!!!
Good old Bill, always keeping us on our toes.
