I'm trying to upgrade windows 2000 to Windows XP I have made it all
the way
to the fourth option installing progams (36min remaining) and the
computer is
asking for file 'e100b325.sys on Intel Pro Adapter CD-ROM. The
computer
freeses up the mouse and the keyboard too. What can i do to reapir
this
problem?
Because the upgrade is now running the new version of Windows which
detects the driver for the hardware is inappropriate and wants you to
point at where is the .sys file for that network card. You'll have to
go find the CD for the Intel NIC (or get it onto floppy or CD using
another host to download from Intel's web site).
Doesn't the install or ignore let you cancel the request for the
driver? If so, cancel and continue the upgrade. Then you will have
to later update the driver for the Intel NIC (network interface card)
by using the CD that came with it or download the driver(s) for that
hardware from Intel's web site.
If the keyboard freeze occurs at the time the upgrade process is
requesting the Intel driver, you'll have to eliminate that hardware to
re-perform the upgrade without that hardware present. It is odd that
a request for a NIC driver would freeze the keyboard. After the
upgrade completes without the hardware present, add the hardware.
Then when Windows loads, it should detect the new hardware at which
time you can install the new driver for it. It the hardware is not
detected when Windows starts, go into Device Manager and rescan for
hardware (Action menu, or right-click on the root node of the tree
list).
