Four months ago I set up my computer to dual-boot between w98 and the
evaluation version of win2000pro. I marked on the calendar that w2kp would
expire this Wednesday. On Wednesday, nothing happened. Yesterday, while I
was using w2kp, I got a message that it would expire in one hour. I
rebooted to w98 and did other stuff, and in an hour my computer crashed
(fatal exception blue screen o' death). I tried w2kp after this and it's
fine. As far as I can tell, I can do everything with it that I could do
before.

I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop...

Click Start, Run and type WinVer in the box and it will then show how many
days or hours remain.

The blue screen you got will continue to occur.

Gee, there's a well-disguised pirate. Not.
