I just bought a nice 950mhz Duron and Abit KT7 from the Overclockerz Store. I'm currently running Win2K on an Abit BP6 with dual Celerons. Is there any way I can keep my current install of Win2K, or am I going to have to install everything all over again? I've got a lot of stuff on here now, and everything is working great, so if I could keep my current config, I'd be much happier.

The multiprocessor kernel should run on a single processor (I think it should). Your main concern should be the drivers that are needed for the Sicket A boards. It should still be able to boot, assuming you are not using a third party IDE controller or something like that.

I'm sure there is something that lets you go from a single cpu system to a duel cpu system, but I dont think the same thing works. (going from duel to single)

the MPS kernel will run with a single processor.

It would be advisable to return to the UPS kernel. All you have to do is go into the "device manager" and "update driver" on the MPS kernel
