When I update windows 2k with the service pack 3 it doesn't startup when finished installing. It gives the following error in a blue screen: inaccessible boot device. The same thing happens when I try to install Windows XP. Something is wrong with my system i gues... Plz help me!

Dacht het niet!
Didn't think so!

Ik heb W2K PRO_NL SP3 + W2K PRO_ENG SP3.
I have W2K PRO_NL SP3 + W2K PRO_ENG SP3.

Het ligt aan SP3.
It is SP3.

#uninstall helpt niet (voor mij dan)
^------ doesn't work.

Neem SP2 terug.
Take SP2 back.

Beide SP3 zijn gecrashed bij mij.
Both SP3 are crashed.

Solution take a cd exmp, W2K PRO_ENG integ. SP2.
Don't try to recover with cd (won't work){didn't try rescue disk yet}
But Install Fresh and it will say that there's already a w2k version and it will ask you if you want to try and recover YES.

Note Previous installed progs' appz' and so on.
Maybe corrupted due rewriting the registry.
But you can regain access to your ntfs drive.
