Does anyone know whether Win2k will install and run with an AMD k6-2/450?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

 
Microsoft claims the AMD K6-2 vs. Windows controversy was settled with the patches to Win 95 B and C. Are you having problems installing 2000 or is this just a hypothetical question? Either way, post the delemna and see what happens.<br>

Apparently, the Betas had problems running on non-intel chips, and I was curious if this problem was addressed or fixed. I am getting ready to install the Win2k &quot;final&quot; and just wanted to see if anyone had any recent info.<br>
<br>
I'll just give it a shot and find out for us all I guess.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

 
I just installed the Win2k Final version on my system(dual boot) &gt;<br>

We have Windows 2000 RTM running on AMD K6-2 300/350/400/450 and K7 666 without any problems.
 
Final runs fine on my K6-3/450, but takes a stupid amount of time to boot. Having a problem with my GeForce at the mo though, but I think that's just the nVidia drivers...
 
Well, Thanks for all input to my original question. Last month I upgraded to a P3-500, and Abit board. No problems AT ALL now.<br>
<br>
Thanks to all,<br>

I run an AMD K6-2/450(overclocked to 500) , with Win2k Professional RC3, with win98 on another partitino, havent had a single problem, and no &quot;hicup&quot; <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@bellsouth.net>kb244@bellsouth.net</a><br><a href= </a><br>
