Hints and Advice for Windows computers
Do you run Microsoft's CD Player, also known as Deluxe CD Player,
on Windows 2000 or Windows 98? If so, you likely have noticed that it
fails to look up CD track and title information on the Internet.
A site called threeTIX
has a solution. Click on the link on threeTix's home page
labeled
Connect W2K/Deluxe CD Player to threeTIX, or just go directly to
Connect Deluxe CD Player for instructions.
Prefer File Manager to Windows Explorer for Windows 2000? Some of us do, because it still has the more compact Multiple Document Interface that saves space and uses fewer Windows tasks. If your copy of Windows 2000 does not include File Manager, here it is. Download the Win 2K File Manager (take all 4 files):
Put these into your WINNT\System32 directory or equivalent.
Don’t have Solitaire on your PC? Here, download Solitaire. Put it into your WINNT\System32 directory or some other directory that is in your System Path.
Or, download File Manager and Solitaire in one Zip File. After downloading, extract the files and put them into your WINNT\System32 directory or equivalent, or into some other directory that is in your System Path.
