Win2K Boot problems

I currently am running Win 98se and Win2K in a dual boot fashion. Ever since I installed win2K it gives me a Blue Screen during boot up and I have to restart. The error message given on the blue screen says something to the effect of "Driver IRQ not less than or equal." I have found that the only way around this problem is to boot up in safe mode, remove my video card from the system and reboot. The OS then boots up fine, autodetects my video card and runs normally...BUT...the next time that the machine is rebooted the error shows up again. I have a Diamond V550 (TNT) card and am running the newest 631 drivers fomr Nvidia. Please Help!!! PS - Everything in 98 works fine.
 
The problem could be many things and you should first get all the updates for your Motherboard (new bios) and video card (bios or drivers) Make sure you have the updated drivers for every piece of hardware you have in the machine then try to see if you get the same error message. I ran into a similar problem once with an older motherboard and the solution was a bios upgrade for the video card and motherboard.
