Hi their,
I'm upgrading from win 98 to win 2000 prof and the drive partition is FAT32. I'm having an error "Setup unable to read from or write to drive c:" Once it done with the upgrade report.
I will appreciate that if their is any solution for that. It aborts the installation once you click ok. Please help me out??

The work around would be to copy the I1386 files to hard drive and run setup from this location using WINNT /B command

I would also recommend running scandisk in win98 prior to installing to make sure your hard drive has no errors.

did you compress files on Windows 98? If you did, you may have to dismount the drive for W2K to be able to write to the drive and upgrade the O/S.
