    Hi, I am running an Althlon 500 (slot A) on an Microstar MS-6167 motherboard, and win2k SP1 with all the latest updates. I have never had ACPI on. Win2k didn't detect it when i installed. I am wondering a few things 1) Does my motherboard actually support ACPI? 2) Is it worth wnabling ACPI? 3) If both the above answers are yes, then how can I do it. Would changing the driver from "Standard PC" to "ACPI PC" do it, or would that screw things up? Is there any other ways to do it WITHOUT reinstalling win2k, which I don't want to do? Thanks in advance Dave Williams

    I have Windows 2000 with Service Pack 1 (build 2195). I have a Pioneer DVD-115 DVD-ROM Drive. When i put a DVD in the drive, it won't let me explore more than 1 level of sub-folders from the root on the DVD disc. It displayes all the subfolders, but no files. The rest of my conficuration is as follows: AMD Athlon 500 (Slot A) Microstar MS6167 Motherboard with AMD 750/751 chipset Maxtor IDE UDMA 66 Hard Drive (Master, Primary Channel) Richoh MP7080A CD-RW Drive (Master, Secondary Channel) The Pioneer DVD-115 is the slave on the secondary channel I have done the following (in no particular order): Got the latest BUS Master drivers for the AMD chipset on the motherboard, Got the ASPI32.dll for Windows 2000 version 4.60 (1021) installed Adaptec's UDF Reader I think the drive is being detected as a DVD drive because the est Region tab is listed on its properties under Device Manager. Reading some of the other postings to do with DVD problems I saw someone mention about looking at the device under storage in computer management (Storage, Physical locations, right click and properties)- I tried adding DVD-ROM 1 sided on the media tab, and it said 'The medium is not compatible with the devicve or media pool' Hope someone can help me. Any ideas/comments/questions welcome.
