I have a Compaq 866 computer with DVD. The computer came with win 98 installed, but I upgraded it to Win 2000 Pro. Now whenever I try to view a DVD movie using intervideo, I get an "create overflow" error. How can I correct this problem.
One of theguys on the job corrected the problem on his similar PC, but claims to have forgotten how he did it.

This is an OS /Driver incompatability problem.
In this case, going to W2K from Win98 is not an upgrade, because Win98 has much better support for Drivers.
The way to fix this is obvious, either hope there is an updated driver that will work, or goback to Win98.
