My windows box is coughing up blood

Tony, did you upgrade DirectX to the latest? Also, when you say you upgraded to Win2K, did you do a fresh install like you mentioned and then move stuff over/reinstall, or did you just upgrade?

For my money, I'd never upgrade a Windows OS. Fresh install is the only way to go. I'd just never really be comfortable with whatever crap it left laying around, and I'd never be sure that something isn't set like it should be because of something I had installed on a prior OS.

Of course, I'm prolly more anal about this than most people.
