Upgrading to win 2000, every thing went normal, screen said it would now
take 30 top 40 minutes and no more questions would need to be answered
and machine would reboot.
Machine rebooted, and screen said please insert Windows 2000 disc, it was
already in the cd drive, removed the disc and reloaded and retried, but it
still said to load Win 2000 disc in cd drive. It would not install any
more. Any suggestions on how to make install completely??
