Need Help Installing Windows Whistler 2257

[Ph33zy]

I'm running windows Me Right now and want to install Whistler onto it but it says it cant detect which version of windows im running...is there a way to override this

call microsoft and ask for help...wait, you didn't get it legally did you? whoops

best bet: don't try and upgrade over a previous version of windblows

I hope he obtained it legally so my Microsoft stock will continue to rise

Careful with Whistler because once you install it and get it running...it automatically send information to microsoft headquarter. They'll know whether it is yours or not. :Q

No joking...

Try this: Boot from floppy, rename win.com to win._om, also wininit.exe to wininit._xe
Run smartdrv.exe & then setup 2257 on D: drive, from dos prompt: i386\winnt.exe.
After installation is done, rename the files back to original names.
Option #2: if you have a 2nd HD, you can choose in bios setup which drive to boot from. Can make both drives independantly bootable. Good for repairing drives if one drive gets corrupted, if Whistler is installed as Fat32.

couldn't you just not have your whistler box not hooked up to the internet and if you do you something like zonealarm and not allow the os to send out information? BTW Ph33zy email me
