Problem seems to be corrected. I dis-assembled computer
laptop looking for battery to reset bios, couldn't find it
so re-assembled and bios was reset when booted. Computer
booted into Win2000 and then went black screen. Cycled
power and error returned. Then went into safe mode and
selected last known working config and then it booted and
has worked ever since. Thanks, for the help, JR
