i have a tyan sd138D dual processor MB everything is unplugged but the Video Card
help?
 
If you made the partition during the w2k install, it will be active by default. Try switching the boot order so that the hd0 comes first. Also, do you have multiple hard disks? If so, are you sure it's hd0 that has w2k installed?

On the off chance that you're using any sort of RAID controller, PCI IDE controller, or SCSI controller, make sure that you set the drive up inside that bios instead of your system bios.
