For a few days a got a used computer from a friend! AMD K7 500MHz. I inserted my Harddisk from PII an all the other components(Graphic Souncard).The Disk has two partitions WIN98 and WIN2000. Under WIN98,no problem but starting WIN2000 there is the following error message: inaccessable_boot_device.

Did you check your BIOS settings for the used computer?

W2K will not let you switch the drive it is on to a different computer.If the switch is to an exactly identical one it will quite often let you get away with it. You will probably have to reinstall W2K.

shove1204: I don't understand about transfer to another machine. I have three friends with AMD/VIA new motherboards that couldn't install W2000 (Hardware conflict notice at black screen). I took their hard drives and their CD's and loaded in my Epox motherboard with an Intel CPU/VIA pro 133A. Added the Via 4in1 drivers, usb filter, service pack 2 and returned the hard drives to them. All three booted perfect and corrected the system files to show their CPU/chipset. They then installed all of their hardware/drivers and have been running for four months. Was this pure luck?

Slight memory fade! I didn't install the Via 4in1 drivers for these friends. They installed these later for their system. I did pre-install the VIA chipset.inf complete folder, so that their chipset version would be recognized during boot. It's hell to get old!
