IF you are installing on the RAID controller it may be possible that Win2k does not have the drivers to use the RAID controller, causing a STOP error. Not sure if this happens with the KT7 RAID, but I know it happens with similar setups like the A7V and its Promise ATA100 controller.

To get around this, get the drivers for the RAID controller on a disk and then when installing, press F6 when prompted to install the third party drivers. Good luck.
