Nexus Polaris

Hello.

Guys i'm trying to install windows 2000 in a pc and when
the setup arrival to the final steps when it installing
the distributed transaction coordination windows 2000 the
machine automatly reboot.

This is the very first time that i see this error...

I've installed more than 1000 machines and much
environment but this is the first time that i see this..

I've change the media CD Sometimes, i'm tried with a
deploy SP3 and SP4 cd and the same problem...

I've change the memory sometime, i've add more memory,
i've disabled all the integrated peripherals in the board,
i've uninstalled phisically the modem and the same
problem, i've activated and desactivated the acpi/apm
options in the bios, i've activated and desactivated the
DMA option in the bios and nothing...

The PC is a P3 a 733mhz with 2560MB of Ram, A quantum HD
of 15GB, the board is a PC Chip 758LMR-H.

The PC was working with windows 98se and i decided to give
it a clean upgrade to windows 2000..

what could be cause this strange behavior???

Thanx

I've the same pb... no reboot but install don't work.
Exactly during setup distributed transaction
coordination .
I'm using SP4 (integrated on cd).
I'll try a SP2 tomorrow.

It's seem that it's a slipstream cd (SP4) that's cos the
problem...
see at : http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?

But u can press shift + F10 to enter command prompt and
type "taskmgr" to launch task manager.
Close a process called dllhost.exe and setup can continue
(not sure of that)...
Tomorrow ,i'll try with an retail CD (SP2).

The Strange Thing with this, is that i can install in
another machine with the same cd, i will try with a
original windows 2000 cd or even and windows XP (but i
don't want xp), and also with windows 98 i give it an
update...
