Re: Windows 2000 Installation Hangs

before you install on this system you have to go to the f10 and make sure two things are set...1) the primary operating system is set to the one you are installing..2) the boot controller order is set to the devices and way you are installing
also are you using smartstart? if so make sure there is no 3rd party hardware in the system as smartstart will hang as it is not designed for third party installations
