Year 2000 Desktop Readiness Website!

http://itgweb/y2kdesktop

 

1 Month and counting!

 

 

 

Is your PC Year 2000 compliant (Http://itgweb/y2kdesktop)?

 

NOTE: If you have already loaded Windows 2000 (Http://ITGweb/Windows2000) and Office 2000 (Http://ITgweb/Office2000), you are two steps closer to Y2K compliance.  Go to the web site to finish up checking out your hardware, third party applications and existing data files.

 

We are 30+ days away from the year 2000 and all M?crosöft employees must prepare their M?crosöft Asset tagged computers. The ITG Desktop Readiness Web Site is designed to help you bring your system into compliance by leading you through a four-step checklist. Be sure to go through this four-step checklist on all of your machines, including desktop and laptop systems.

The four main points of exposure to Year 2000 problems that this Web site will ask you to check are:

·        Computer Hardware

·        Computer Operating Systems

·        Software Applications

·        Data on your hard-drive

The average time to complete all steps will take 15-30 min. depending on the amount of documents (in the final step #4) that need to be made compliant.

 

Y2K  Compliance Website:

Go here http://itgweb/y2kdesktop and follow the on-screen instructions.

Thank You
