Author w2k server installs sooo slowly :(

win2k advanced server installs really slowly on a amd k6 266 oc'd to 300 with 128 meg (SIMMS) on a 3 GB HD.

anyone want to buy me some new hardware?

It will be much faster than installing to a P133 with 128Mb (SIMM).

Yep. I'm using it as the server at home. At least, it ran faster than NT4 server.

you're serious about it being faster than NT4? i thought NT4 was pretty decent on some of the lower end stuff when compared to 2k... and i know that on a p120, NT4 WS was SOOO much better than w98 was.

are you running AD on that server yet? i haven't even installed that yet on mine and cringe at the very thought of it. back in january, i had 2k server on a p3 550/128, it ran fine. then i put AD on and MAN, talk about slow boot times! even on our Compaq Proliant dl380 (dual p3700Xeon/1GB ram) AD makes it crawl compared to all that power! AD is soooo bloated, IMO.

Nope. No AD by now and I don't think the P133 can handle AD. I'm trying to save some $$$ to build a dual PIII myself. By now, I'm just setup the network as a workgroup, all waiting for the new server.

For Win2K server on that machine, I don't know why but it does run faster than Windows NT server with service pack 6 installed.

well, you should definately have the power you need for AD if/when you get that dualie built up. but i agree, it would be really hard for that 133 to push AD.

when do you plan on taking 240? how are you studying for it? i'm kinda working on the individual core 4 but at same time trying to gather it as a whole into my brain... i don't know if i'm getting anywhere fast though.

I think I've to take 240 by the end of this year. By now, I'm working on 220 and will take it on 25th. Same time, I'm working on 210 so far.

I used MS Press Core Four Kit, Exam Prep 70-240 and Win2K resource kits for my studies.
