RE: Windows 2000

I had a lot of problems, even with 256 mb of ram.  What I did was a clean
install.  Was a real pain - took three days to get everything reinstalled
but I no longer have any problems at all with the OS.

I'm using Win2000 for 6 months now and NEVER had a lock!  For me, Win2000
is great!
Isn't it possible that you have a problem with the hardware itself (Memory,
Videocard, Networkcard,...)?

I've also Office2000, WDT400 (VAJAVA, CODE400,...), Lotus Notes amongst
others installed.
Because the complete VAJAVA is so hungry, I had to install 512Mb of memory.
Originally there was 'only' 128Mb.  The PC worked also without locks but,
when using VAJAVA it became too slow.

On some occasions, when I worked from home (almost same config but 128Mb
only) and the internetconnection was lost, I had the problem with the
sources too.  I was not able to open the dds until I did a 'wrkobjlck'
which pointed me to the 'original' job.  I cancelled this job and was able
to use the source again.

Is anyone having trouble running Code/400 with Windows 2000?  Recently
acquired a new pc with Windows 2000.  Everything I have read so far about
Windows 2000 states how stable it is.  I seem to be locking up frequently
and cannot even ctrl-alt-delete to get out of it.  I continually have to
hit the reset button which takes my system completely down.

On several instances, I have been in Code/400 Designer and the system has
locked.  After I reset my machine and then try to open my dds file again,
the AS/400 thinks the file is in use and will not let me in until an IPL.
Even with a "WRKOBJLCK," nothing shows a lock on this file.

When I was running Windows NT, I definitely did not have these kind of
problems that the "stable" WINDOWS 2000 seems to be giving me.  I have been
searching the internet for suggestions, but cannot come up with any
solution to my problem.  Other users in the office also seem to be
experiencing this "lockup" problem, but they do not run CODE/400.  Several
have noticed that they were in MS-WORD when it happens to them.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Diane
