    Really Really dumb win2k question.....

    I just reinstalled win2k and at the bottom right of my otherwise black background, it says, "Windows 2000 Professional" and then underneath that, "Build 2195" in white. How do I get rid of this???? It's driving me nuts!

    Thanks,

    Have you tried turning off active desktop and using "none" as your background? Both are in your display properties.

      Go to the Control Panel, TweakUI applet, open the General tab, then uncheck Show Windows version on desktop

        And if it shows that by default you aren't using the final version of Win2k. I'd go scrounge up another copy if I were you.

          Thanks RED.

          Gurm, it's the only copy I have that works right now.... My other copies crapped out on me for some reason....
