Make sure your booting from CD. Not hard drive.

Disconnect Win2K harddrive. Connect 2nd hard drive by itself. Stick WinME CD in CDROM Drive. Boot From CD and start with CD support. FDISK 2nd hard drive, reboot, boot from cd, format, then run setup.exe from winme cd. Your WinME CD will be bootable unless you have a w4r3z "ripped" copy.

Why not just disconnect your win2k hard drive and work only with the 2nd harddrive.

I get an ACPI.sys BSOD after installing new drivers and rebooting. I get this BSOD "An Interupt Storm caused your system to hang"

Also, If your small business runs a custom made P.O.S.S. (Point Of Sale System) make sure it runs flawlessly in a NT based environment, and if certain patches and/or upgrades need to be obtained from the manufacturer.

Reasons you see so many help requests for win2k are a)Home users who want Win2K to do all the nice multimedia stuff Win9x could do (DVD, Games, etc.) b)Its more complex and therefore harder to set some apps and settings. c)Like said above, When Win2K goes boom it goes boom good! If your going to upgrade your business to Win2K I'd wait. WinXP will be coming out soon. M$ claims it to be just as stable as Win2K every was but with more compatibility. Feel free to email me or ICQ me at 19901838 if you have any more questions.

I have Office XP Final. I just downloaded Office XP Enterprise Edition. I was wondering what the differences were and is it worth installing enterprise edition?

That EAX splash screen occurs with WinME SBLive drivers as well. Just delete the executable file that contains the splash screen.

Its the 11.1 Detonator Drivers. Change to the 7.5x drivers and your problems will go away.

Scrap media player for divx. I use this nice, simple FAST divx player called BSPlayer.

Norton Antivirus 7.5x with the sevinst fix

To run a program in compatibility mode just create a shortcut to the desired program. Right click on the shortcut and goto properties. In the shortcut properties you'll have the option to run in compatibility mode.

He asked if anyone got it working... not "I have such and such an error please help". Try installing the latest version and then download a crack to register it.

Works perfectly for me.

When defragmenting make sure you don't have any crap running in the background that has acess to your disc drive.

RAR it down to two 650 megs files

those are IRC and napster ports..but hey, if their free why not use em. Also, find out what ports ICQ is using and use those ports.

I had seen this problem with Gigabyte boards. But it only happened in Win98 and Win2k (problem seemed to disappear with WinME). I see that your board is an Abit board. Only thing I can recommend is update all mobo drivers and upgrade your Bios.

Just install the AGP drivers. Apparantly WinXP is suppose to have full support for VIA chipsets.

I wasn't able to get 7.0 corporate to work. I had to switch over to 7.5x.

The only reason why i thought winme blew monkey chunks was because it basically didn't do what i wanted it to do. I do a fare bit of audio recording, (and no, not lamer mp3 editing and such) i mean real audio recording. WinME just wasn't able to handle it. I'd get buffer underruns, audio dropouts, and frequent lockups. WinME would choke up as soon as I had 3 or more audio programs open at the same time (cakewalk, soundforge, rebirth, reason, wavelab). The point is, for me, winme sucks but for another person (eg AOL user) WinME might be the best thing since sliced bread.

Now for a limited time only when you purchase your favorite flavour of Win2K server line you will get your choice of security hole!!! Whether it be DoS vulnerability, or the ever so exciting ActiveX vulnerability! Act now!

Does the Santa Cruz support Wavepipe acceleration and does it have Soundfont support?

XP has its own built in firewall feature. Its in the properties for your network connection.
