I have to install win2k pro on a machine without CD
drive, and this machine has a new hard drive-which means
i can't get into dos and after rebooting, it asks to
insert bootdisk into A!

How can I install it from A drive??? Helpp...
 
You might temp install the drive in another machine, create a primary
partition of desired size, also create a second small partition, copy the
\i386 directory from the CD-Rom to the second partition. Put it back in the
original machine, boot a win98 startup disk, mark the primary partition as
active, then run \i386\winnt.exe from the second partition to start your
install.
