Just switched from Win98 to Win2k, and no matter what video card I use I am getting the following error:

This Device Cannot Start ( Code 10)

:-( Everything worked fine in Win2k! It appears to be a problem with my video card, but no matter which video card I use ( I've tried 4 ) I still get this error and a nice 640x480 16 color screen. Windows 98 worked perfect! Win2k dies!!! :-(

Any ideas for things to try?

Specs:
Trying with ATI 9000 AGP at the moment
P2 450mhz
AMI SuperMicro mobo - P6SBA 440BX
Win2k Pro

It sounds like an incorrect video driver. Have you downloaded the latest Win2K driver from ATI (or whoever). You should remove whatever video drivers you currently have and install the latest ones. If you've done that already, I can't think of another problem since I don't know anything about your particular motherboard. Does it have built in video? If so are you sure it's disabled?
