Re: 2nd installation W2K needed for rootkit problem

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I've done this. The driver seems to install correctly but when I reboot, it
doesn't work.

Could the problem be that the new drive I've reinstalled Windows 2000 on was
not previously formated, because my main installation won't let me do this?
It says that, to reformat the drive, I have to quit any programs that are
using it, yet no program that I've loaded is running.

Thanks.

Check the hardware manufacturer's web site for the latest Windows 2000
driver for your device.
