Thanks,

We've been running 8.1.7 on Win2k SP2 for over a year now and have had no problems. I've found Win2k to be much more stable, and for that reason alone we've gone that direction.

we've had 8.1.7 running on nt4 for a year now, without any stability problems, so the stability argument doesn't get me any further.
thanks anyway

We use both. I do not have any problems with choosing either one. In the near future though everything will be moved to Windows 2000, something about Microsoft phasing out support for NT.

I have setup 8.1.6 on NT and 2k ... works great on either, but I second the reason to move to 2k due to Microsoft phasing out NT support.
