Have you download the newest ATA66 driver from highpoint-tech.com? I have the exact same setup and here's what i did. 1. Copy drivers into Floppy. 2. Make sure your HD is hook up to ATA33, for now. 3. Clean install W2k, Hit F6 at startup screen will bring you to a menu which you can now select "mass storage device". 4. Insert ATA66 driver floppy and install the HighPoint HPT66 drive, TWICE! (since you have two ATA66 controller on-board) 5. if w2k installation succeed, congrat. now "add hardware" -> Highpoint HPT66 for your two controller, again, but this time in W2K->control panel 6. Reboot and make sure everything's running. (meanwhile your HD still @ IDE33) 7. Shutdown. Plug your HD to ATA66 controller. Reboot. Should work.

please send me the patch thank!!! k4lam@home.com

I've been reading this thread and seems it's getting out of hand. I think we should all stop trying to single out a member in this forum.. I am not on either sides, I use both 98 and 2K and I like them both. It's just funny to see how a lot of people taking it too seriously about one member's commen. If you don't like what he/she said, just say you don't, how hard is that? Don't you think it's getting a little childish to start making personal comments? I disagree with Quantas that W2K is worse than W2k but that does not mean i have to start flaming. All i see here is just whenever Quantas try to reply to clarify things that he said, ALL of us just won't let him do so but instead keep pouring more gasoline on fire. Chill!

I have the same problem sometimes, while running IE5 or Frontpage 2000. THe screen will just blank out out of nowhere. I still haven't figured out why but adjusting the core voltage made sense, so I'm gonna try that. I have a G400Max so i think the drivers're pretty good.

BlackICE is good too, just that it doesn't support W2k yet (only hack detection no filtering/blocking), that's why i switched to Zonealarm, which is just as good but w2k compatible.

People use windowblinds to create that effect and sure it looks cool, but on a slower machine or a video card with "not as high" refresh rate, you will see some jerkiness when poping up the "start" menu and others. I tried it and it slows down my machine a lot. so forget it.

how can such an awesome program be free?? life is good! : )

probably a dump question... where do i change MPS back to ver 1.1 in the bios? i can't seem to find it..

ok. thanks.. i thought you don't need to Hard-code an IRQ for USB in the bios for it to work... W98 doesn't need to do that to configure usb.. just a thought. Thanks guys! apv: how'd you know i got bp6?

I have a little "exclamation" mark beside the USB driver under device manager, does W2K support USB?

I did a clean install. W98 will use a compatible Adaptec AHA something scsi driver for the zip zoom card without asking for the Iomega Driver disk. Unfortunately when I tried to install the same adaptec device in W2K, blue screen of death!! Iomega still haven't done anything regarding W2K drivers yet.. i guess we'll just have to wait.

Thanks alot!

No!!! I am too late!!! *doh* *whisper* Where's this Chameloen forum?

Eddie, Will it work if I install programs to W2K first then W98? Thanks!

Tried. Ioware 2.0 installed but W2k would not detect my zip zoom card.. *doh* if anyone can tell me how to install Zip zoom card that'll be great. Thanks!
