Of course Windows XP can stay up for months. WinNT4,Win2K and Windows .NET can maintain great uptimes too. Anything NT can run for nonstop for long periods of time with no problems. My uptime with XP was just a little short of 5 1/2 months, then I decided to install new chipset and video card drivers then I had to reboot. Right now my current uptime is almost at 2 months. I use the system to do everything too, so nobody can say I just let my box sit and do nothing.
If it wasn't for the driver updates I installed I would have about a 7 1/2 month uptime right now. Oh well, it is a small price to pay for better gaming and 3DMArk performance. ;P

My system has been for a week before, but it's hardware handles like a dodge, very rattley, no matter what OS. Linux still has better Uptime so far... Windows 2k has ran for 4 days at most and line for a week.

Somehow I doubt that you even use Windows long enough to get a good uptime with it.

What the fuck are you rambling on about? Half of the time you make absolutley no sense at all.

The longest I could keep a WinXP Pro computer running Apache 2.0.36 running was 3 days (tweaked) and 2 days (untweaked) (In a little while, I'll break four, this is my 7th run). It crashed HARD on the end of the last run, everthing locked up solid, and I have no clue why...it's never done that before. The server really isn't being used, so when it does get hammered in a few weeks we'll see how long it lasts.
As for Linux running Apache 2.0.36, the longest I ever had it running (tweaked) was about 3 months. Then I decided to install XP for testing purposes, and that's the only reason I stopped it. This thing under Linux (Red Hat) was brutalized. I ran Quake III (w/decent frame rates, mind you) while 5-10 people were downloading 100+ MB files. Good shit :D
I'm not bashing XP, I'm stating fact. If XP runs more than 4, or even to 90 days, I would have no problem stating that fact. Right now it is my production server, so it should be interesting to see what happens.
BTW: This is a totally different computer than the one I posted in the hardware discussion. In case you wanted to know:
AMD Athlon Classic 750 MHz
EP7KXA Mobo (Slot A)
1536 MB RAM 3x PC-133 Chips
2x(HW-Mirrored) 120 GB HDDs (I just added these)
GeForce 2 MX (Also just added)
24x10x40 CD Burner (Just added)
Floppy Drive
Tiny ass n' silent case
Video, Mouse & Keyboard over a KVM switch
Partitions:
Red Hat Linux - Updated to 7.3 (10 GB incl. Swap)
Windows XP Pro - All Updates (10 GB)
File storage space (100 GB)
PS: Fill out your phuckin' profiles! He's got a point. I know :rolleyes: but it's worth it...we may share a common interest. Maybe even *Gasp* get along for 30 seconds!
