Via 4in1s required for Win2k?

[gimps]

I just did another fresh reinstall of Win2k, and went ahead and installed the latest 4in1s. But, I seem to be getting intermittent CPU spikes.. every now and then (always when opening up My Computer tho), CPU usage jumps to 100%.. I'm thinking it might be due to the 4in1s, but not sure.. even tho I didn't have this problem before I formatted (for other reasons).
would it be safe to just uninstall the 4in1s and see how it goes?

well I just installed the Raid Performance Patch and that seems to have fixed the problem... yay

Yes, you need the 4 in 1's. Those are CHIPSET drivers that allow the OS to communicate with the mobo and the north/south bridges. You need them. Don't uninstall them.

with win2k i dont think u need to install the ide section of the drivers. im a little burnt right now so i cant think of what its exactly called off the top of my head. otherwise install the other parts of the 4 in 1's...
