Enabling Compatibility Mode in Win2k

[grifterspawn]

Found this on winoscentral.com very sweet.

The Compatibility-mode technology is not exposed by default. To enable an interface so that you can use this technology for your programs after you apply SP2:
Log on as Administrator.
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type the following command, and then click OK, where %SystemRoot% is the drive and folder in which Windows 2000 is installed:
regsvr32 %systemroot%appPatch(place backslash here)slayerui.dll

so for me it looks like

regsvr32 C:\winnt\appPatch\slayerui.dll

it was enabled for me by default. you just right click, go to properties, than the compatibility tab.

In win2k it wasnt ever for me, in winxp it was.

In mine, it disappeared after SP2 I think.

Btw Grifter, thanks for the tip.
