Hello: I am error loading operating system windows vista home premium installing Win2k Server on a PIII System with a 80 Gig WD Caviar drive. This system previously was running Linux. I deleted the linux partitions during install (with the Win2k CD) https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc940349.aspx and created a new 10 gig partition to Install the Win 2k O/S.

Then later you'll be prompted to insert the manufacturer supplied Windows 2000 driver for your ultra ATA controller in drive "A" If you wait and then S to specify additional drivers, then it may be too late as Windows 2000 Setup at this point may have already assigned the resources your drive's controller is wanting to use. When you get to the point, delete the existing NTFS and or other partitions found. After you delete the partition(s) abort the install, then again restart

If you suspect that this is the problem, you need to use Fdisk.exe to change the active partition. To do this, you need an DOS boot disk and the Fdisk.exe program. In tip 4011, we built a DOS boot disk, but without Fdisk.exe. If you have access to a Windows 98 computer: 1. Insert a 3.5 inch diskette in the floppy drive. 2. Start / Run / Command / OK. 3. In the Command window, type: format a: /s and press Enter two times, where a: is the floppy drive letter. 4. Press Enter when prompted for a volume label. 5. Type n when prompted to format another diskette and press Enter. 6. Type copy c:\windows\command\fdisk.exe a: and press Enter. 7. Close the Command Windows. To use Fdisk.exe. 1. Insert the diskette with Fdisk.exe into the Windows 2000 computer's floppy drive and start the computer. 2. At the A:\> prompt, type Fdisk.exe and press Enter. 3. Press Enter to enable large hard disk support. If prompted about NTFS, press Enter. 4. At the Enter choice item, type 2 and press Enter. 5. Type the partition number to mark as active and press Enter. 6. Press ESC. 7. Remove the diskette and restart Windows 2000.
