I'm trying to install windows 2000 Professional Iam using
4 setup disks then the CD. When it gets to a point during
the install the computer shuts down automatically. I have
formatted the h/d 3 times and tried 3 times. Any ideas
why this would happen??
 
Why are you using the 4 setup disks to install W2K Pro? Is it that your
system is so old it can't boot from a CD? If not, change the boot order in
your bios to boot from the W2K CD.

Is the hardware W2K compliant? Is bios ACPI compliant? You can try
installing W2K with all unneccessary peripherals removed.
To diagnose hard drive, use the HD manufacturer's diagnostic utility. To
diagnose memory modules, download docmem from www.simmtester.com. To
diagnose CPU, download the manufacturer's diagnostic utility. etc...
