win2k upgrade from winNT problem HELP

Recommended Posts

I was running MS Workstation NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5)

and ran the upgrade to Win2k.

 

During installation phase - Installing devices

processes completes 75% on progress bar,

after modems installed successfully,

installation hangs.

 

Does NOT respond to Ctrl-Alt-Del.

On Reboot - installation resumes to same hangup.

 

Safe Mode does not work.

I am in the process of going into setup mode and

disabling devices (one at a time)

- in the hopes of finding the device causing the hangup.

 

I would like to avoid FDISK and new win2K installation (not upgrade).

 

Is there a better/faster way out of this win2K install hell?
