With Windows 95/98, it does not matter how much memory that you have. The
system resources are still limited as they were in Windows 3.1.
You will not run into the system resource problems using Windows NT that you
may be encountering with Windows 98 or 95. However, NT will not magically
speed up any applications though. It will just provide a stabile and secure
OS for the apps.
In general, I think that TS2k is slower (definitely slower loading) than
TS4, but TS2k does have some features that I need that TS4 does not have.
Once all the work spaces are loaded, the charts and any systems/indicators
are updated in real-time fine. I usually leave everything up and running
24/7 with the help of UPS.

Subject: 2000i using Windows 98 vs. NT
I have experienced such significant responsiveness issues using
2000i on
a Windows 98 platform that I am back to 4.0. Omega tells me that if
I
use 2000i on Windows NT I will see the same speed and responsiveness
that I do running 4.0 on Windows 98.
I particularly like the option that 2000i professes to offer
regarding
being able to keep many workspaces open with a number of charts and
indicators loaded (something that 4.0 limits). I do run with 386 mg
of
ram and use a 400 mhz processor.
Before I invest in NT (both the software and hardware) I just wanted
to
find out if the problems of running 2000i under Windows 98 are
eliminated using NT.
Also, if there are other hardware configurations that make 2000i
even
more responsive, I would be interested in that also.
Thank you for your feedback.
