Hello,
I am currently running windows me and I have been trying to install
windows 2000 professional (with service pack 2). However when I run the setup
it goes through the process seemingly successfully including converting the
disk to NFTS, but when it tries to re-boot the computer just hangs saying
press any key to boot from cd-rom.

Any ideas what is going on, could my bios be out of date.
Regards
Robert
 
remove CD from CD drive.
change boot sequence in setup so that HD is first boot
device (or CD is not)

For starters, you must do a clean install of W2k; ME canNOT be upgraded
to W2k.

When you boot (from the W2k CD directly, or using the 4 W2k setup
diskettes), the install process will take you through partition
formatting etc for the clean install.
