I would like to install windows 2k in my system. I have 98 SE in there now.
I was wondering if this would work? Also what would I have to upgrade in the
motherboard? I think I have to update the High-Point controller I have
version 1.25 inatalled. I would appreciate any advice on this.

I had Win2K installed on my BE6-II version 1.1 (Hpt 366) using 1.25.1
drivers and Highpoint bios.

Hey, Tom:
did you see my post here:
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&threadm=419901DD.1A1%40shays....com&pr

I am desperate, I really liked KG7-R until it crashed.

Sent an email to Abit tech support last week but still no reply,
called them this afternoon, held for like 25min, had to hang up...

any idea will be greatly appreciated...

XP will not allow an *upgrade* installation on boards with the 366
controller but would allow a fresh installation. not too sure about win2K
as I never tried an upgrade from 98 to 2K... it should be able to be done
as far as I know. what are the issues you have been fighting? or have you
not even started?

have a full backup of the system, regardless, in the event that things blow
up.
