Im tryin to install Win2k on my comp with a Via MVP3 chipset and TNT2 card, but when I go to boot, all i get is a black screen.

It goes through the boot sequence with the splash screens, but when it goes to the desktop display, it turns black and there is no activity. I can boot safe mode, but how do I fix this?

I had the same problem with my old TNT2 in Win2k. You need to get the latest detonators from nvidia, then with those handy, boot in to safe mode. Remove your TNT2 from the device manager, then reboot into normal mode, log in as admin, and install the detonators. Works for me, but as always, ymmv.
