I had a motherboard go bad so i replaced it with another one. now when i try to boot into win2k I get a blue screen that says Inaccessable_Boot_Device.

 

What's going on here?

Boot your PC off the Win2k Pro CD and try a repair. Is your new mobo identical to the one that went bad ? If not, good chance you have a different chipset from your old mobo. Also, check your BIOS settings for your hard drive.

Always when you change a hardware device like

video, mother, hard disk of course you *must*

reinstall of living the heck of crashing for

using the wrong drivers....

Yup, if you install a new motherboard, definetly reinstall completely. Graphics card hasn't been a problem when I've done it...but I might have just been lucky :smokin:

 

Although on Sunday I'll be installing my new Abit KA7 mobo and GeForce 2 GTS...so will have to reinstall Windows 2000...will try those new Creative Dxr3 drivers as well cool

How did the install of your Abit KA7 go?

 

I am getting one of those plus a Athlon 750.

 

Any trouble installing Win2000?
