Windows fails to install

I had an issue with the first release of Win2k Professional and my 80GB hard
drive capable of UltraDMA/133. Win2k kept crashing on the install. The
original release of Win2k does not support DMA modes above 4 (or 66MHz).
This is documented in theKnowledge Base on the Microsoft web site.
Microsoft fixed it in later releases and it is patched in Service Pack 2, I
believe.

In order to resolve my issue I went into the BIOS and set the DMA mode to 4.
Win2k loaded without a problem. I then ran all the Service Packs available
from Microsoft. Then I went back into the BIOS and turned the speed back up
to DMA mode 6 (UltraDMA/133MHz). It flies now.

Try it out. Good lcuk.
