Trying to stay awake as I install yet more updates on the Win2k box.
The "automatic update" feature (which I'd configured to *ask* me before downloading and to ask before installing downloaded updates) had kept cycling thru the same update (to Outlook Express, which I never use). So I went and fired up "Windows update" which has grabbed SP4 (I was at SP3) and is now installing a bunch of updates.
Once I get it stable, I'll back up the drive, then I'll see about morte RAM and upgrading the CPU (I've got the board I originally bought this CPU for, and it can take the old RAM and CPU if I get another case)
Once I have things set up ok, and am using it instead of the laptop, I can try a few things on the laptop that I'd been afraid to risk while it was my only net access.
