Has anyone had problems with Sandra and Win2k. After I install I receive a message box that says "Could not initialise device driver! Check installation." I've tried installing both the standard and pro versions and I receive the same message.

I'm running Win2k and SP1 with all other updates installed from the Windows Update site.

I would appreciate any suggestions. I've tried all of them from the FAQ already.

Thanks.

i got that when i first installed it, but that was probably because i had sandra2001 and sandra2001se installed at the same time. i uninstalled them both then reinstalled 2001se, now i don't get that message anymore

:disgust:

Ok, I tried reinstalling several times to no avail. So I got desperate and reinstalled Win2k. After installing all my drivers I installed Sandra 2001se Pro. I didn't install SP1 or any other software. Now when I try to run the program the Sandra screens comes up, goes away, and that is it. The program doesn't load. Could my hardware be causing this or is it windows?

Thanks for all your help.

I want to try to start tweaking, but I want a starting point. Is there another program for memory benchmarks?
