Driver disks are not supplied with Win2K.
The drivers required could relate to any of yr hardware. If you are
upgrading from an earlier o/s did you check for compatibility probs prior to
starting this procedure?
If an upgrade remove all external devices. eg printer/scanners etc
You might want to start with the driver disks that were supplied with yr
sys.
