Hi,
Which is the best OS for G2?
Win 98
Win 2K pro
Win XP
Other
I currently have a Win 2K professional. Does the performance change with different operating systems?
thanks,
Mayur

IMO, OS only matters for installation and driver conflicts. Once you get G2 up and running, the speed difference will be not noticible (at least, I can't see any FPS difference between W98 and XP). Video driver improvement is what makes the difference. Once nVidia comes out with a new, faster, drivers, it's immediately felt in G2.

i am running win2k pro and have no problems. i have used all the major m$ o/s (win95, 98, me, 2k pro and xp) and feel that 2k pro is the best in terms of stability and speed. sorry xp users -

I've never used XP but I know when I had 2K pro on it was a fair amount slower with the same hardware, not on RC sims mind you cause I didn't have any at the time, but in general on games. That said, 2K is wonderfully stable compared to the other MS junk (if I can get the extra hard drive loaded in the family PC I'll be trying to get G2 running in Wine on Linux, cause it doesn't seem to like my P3-450 with no 3D card that I've got Linux on now when it comes to running higher end 3d Games at least)

Hi I have an AMD 1.4 GIG CPU, 512 megs Ram, Voodoo 5 5500(64meg ram), 60 gig HDD. I am running Windows XP at the present time. WOW what a difference, I had this setup in Windows 98, but now in XP w/3rd party drivers for the Voodoo 5, I can turn everything on (Graphics) and come close to the ground and it doesn't even hesitate on the graphics. XP has made a big difference in the performance. I purchased the new USB controller and the program is much snapier w/control.
