It might have been. Y2K Stands for year two thousand. The old computers went from 1997 to 98 to 99, and 00 is an invalid date. Basically all the computers in the world would have shut down, and yes, that includes the bank computers. It would have been a major problem because basically everyone would be bankrupt at the stroke of midnight on January 1st 2000. Scary, no?

What was the world's most serious global problem in 1999 that is not even a factor today?
The Year 2000 problem (also known as the Y2K problem, the Millennium bug, the Y2K bug, or simply Y2K) was a problem for both digital (computer-related) and non-digital documentation and data storage situations that resulted from the practice of truncating a four-digit year to two digits. This made year 2000 indistinguishable from 1900. The former assumption that a twentieth-century date was always understood caused various errors concerning, in particular, the display of dates and the automated ordering of dated records or real-time events.

How did you stop the Y2K computer problem?
Quoted from what is y2k (also by me):"Y2K" refers to the "Year 2000 (2 k)". Since this is posted in computer history, I'll assume you're referring to it's effect on computers, or more specifically the "Y2K bug". This was a bug out of the fact that before 2000, computers assumed that years started with 19 e.g. 1985 or 1999. When 2000 came around, people just assumed that computers would glitch out with errors as "2000" doesn't fit into the 19__ form. This was attributed to anything that was relied on computers (car ignition systems, coffee makers, etc.). January 1st came and went, and this proved to be false. And life went on...This caused no major problems, and most programmers had switched their code to be "y2k" compatible anyway.Oh, and I didn't stop it, other people did
