This is the second time it happens. i have a BDC running W2k AS, and whenever i change any hardware settings, i loose all drivers (VGA, sound, and most important, network card).
the first time all i did was a change in BIOS settings, and today, i tried to add a new hard disk. in both cases, same problem.
should i just reinstall drivers (i think not, coz devices will not replace, but will have duplicates i guess in registry)
Thanks

Sounds like a hardware problem to me. Have you updated the BIOS to the
latest version? Run chkdsk on the volume as well and see if there are any
problems with the drive.
