Hi there
Was not paying attention when I was trying to fix W2K and
started an upgrade with the W2K cd. I first tried with my
boot disks but a file was corrupt and it aborted.
So it stops when it is trying to install, or check COM+
(don't remember the exact place).
Can I get around this particular glitch, or can I boot
from the cd, or am I SOL?

Does it hang at registering COM+ Components? If so, try the following:

1-press SHIFT+F10 to get to a command prompt

2-type in "taskmgr" to get task manager up

3-end the dllhost.exe process

The setup should continue. If not try stopping the GRPCONV.EXE processes.



If you are receiving an error, please tell us the exact error and when it
happens.
