By safeguarding system files in this manner, Windows 2000 mitigates many common system failures found in earlier versions of Windows. Driver certification: Provides safeguards to assure you that device drivers have not been tampered with and reducing your risk of installing non-certified drivers. Full 32-bit operating system: Minimizes the chance of application failures and unplanned reboots. Microsoft Installer: Works with the Windows Installer Service, helping users install, configure, track, upgrade, and remove software programs correctly, minimizing the risk of user error and possible loss of productivity. Windows Logo Program: Provides assurance that applications have met a comprehensive set of standards developed by Microsoft in cooperation with customers and third-party developers. Dramatically Reduced Reboot Scenarios: Eliminates most scenarios that forced you to reboot in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 9x. Many software installations also will not require reboots.
