Hey Joyride, follow the instructions! first thing to do when you install W2K is to review the M$ Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) on the website to determine first if the drivers are present. If all of your goods are on the list, I suggest you install with all drives, etc., in the computer as...

hey ojai 00, it's like origami man, just remember to use appropriate cables (length,IDEvs.SCSI,etc.) and fold away, remembering to be imaginative and creative. I can actually better direct the flow of air in my case using this method and have for several years now. It's simple yet effective...

I installed a Radeon LE AGP video card (replaced PCI 3DBlaster Savage4) and at first the computer wouldn't boot-up. The computer powered up but no monitor support or boot. Pulled out all the cards and reinstalled the new video card and then all the others one at a time and now I can run...

I've heard alot about these on this forum but I'm a little unsure where to go from here based on my limited experience. So how does one make a disk like...

PlunX thanks for the reply. I did just what you said and made sure the card is all the way in and got basically the same results. Then I reinstall the 3Dsav4 and the drivers and restart forgetting to take out the Radeon and this time the computer sees it, I think, and it proceeds to attempt to...

I'm running W2K with Adaptec 5 "Platinum" and seem to be able to copy any audio cd or "off brand" game cd without any difficulty. However when I try to copy the latest MS game cd's they always fail. Does this mean that they're copy protected and is there anything I can do to...
