W2K fails to boot

[Dana]

Have done a clean install of Win2K on a HP Pavilion
w/Millenium that needed a BIOS upgrade due to ACPI
compliancy. Upgrade of a 2rd party BIOS went OK. Then
reformatted HD and installed W2K as a clean install. It
appeared to go OK but trying to start W2k ends with a
lock up at the desktop. Can boot in Safe Mode OK but all
looks OK in Safe Mode. Any clues on what to try next?
TIA, Dana
