There could be numerous reasons for that. Did you install the W2K on a sep partition? I previously had this issue when I brought back a DriveImage from PowerQuest. I think the resolution was fairly simple, just run FDISK /mbr from a bootable Win98 disk. If you have a BootMagic loaded at startup, it will kick it out, but you just need to re-select it after you logon correctly. HTH

I have the same problem...My system keeps rebooting when the ascii progress bar reaches 100%. I don't know what to do. The problem occured right after the installation. The BIG problem is that I can't switch to Safe Mode. It freezes! I have a AMD K6-2 450 on a Soyo 5EH1 motherbaord. I did the recomended BIOS update but still nothing.
