Hi! I'm trying to install win2k, but I get the error in the title everytime I boot from the install disks. I have an asus a7v motherboard. Any ideas? The last time I did this, a year ago, it worked...
 
You will get the following message if you use setup diskettes created with makeboot.exe instead of makebt32.exe on a machine with Windows 9x OS already installed:


File \ntkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded
The error code is 7

I dont know if this is relevant but I found it on a site in search. you might want to see if making boot disks with makebt32.exe will make a diff on your system.
 
yep, i saw that too, but i had a different problem. this a7v motherboard is throwing more errors at me then i wish... we finally just took the ata100 cable out of the picture, and plugged an IDE in. the promise controller is just about incompatible with everything, and it complains about the stupidest things. Thanks, though
