Y2K - Was it a hoax?
Goodmoring fellow PPRUNERS.
Just got out of bed (01/01/00)and thought OK time to see what if anything has gone wrong with my PC. We have two fairly old machines, 1 x 386SX circa 1991 and 1 x P75 circa 1996.
Both machines booted up OK but the 386, when going through the dos sequence did notice an "invalid date". Both machines had defaulted to the date 01 April 1980.
So back into DOS, quick change of date/time and bingo! everything seems to work. But I suppose it will take a while to be certain.
One well reputed software program reported that the 386 was going to be totally useless on Jan 01 2000.
Anyone else have similar experiences?
