After I install service pack 2 and reboot the system locks up at the startup screen. History: Epox KL-133M MOBO
Windows 2000 sp1
ATA5 80GB Seagate
RAM 512mb PC133
Onboard video and audio.

When I first installed W2K the system would lock up at the startup but when I disabled ACPI the install went through without problem. It is very stable and fast. Problem is this will be a server and I need to install service pack etc. Any help with this would be greatly apprectiated.

hi,
i don't think that you can jump to serv pack 2 on w2k with dloading hotfix and serv pack 1. although majority of the time, you just need to make sure that all of you drivers are all updated. or you might want to try a scan to cnet and dload catchup. there you'll find all the patch you need.
