Its being a bitch and icant get it working

I might put on windows 2000, is it better to use for internet sharing, i
know its more stable all round.
Is it a resource hog? i have a 450 celeron with 64mb ram, prob 128mb soon.
much slower than winme?

Il still be running winme on my client, just the same as running a client
from 2000?

Thanks again

Rob
