Does anyone know how to change the Boot Sequence in
Win2000 Pro? I need to boot from E(CD) for a Symantic
install. Thanx-n-advance.

Chnaging the boot sequence has nothing to do with Windows 2000,
or with any other operating system. You do this in the BIOS
setup, and in fact you have to do it before any operating system
even begins to boot.

How to get into the BIOS setup depends on your hardware--on what
BIOS you have. You can try hitting the del key repeatedly as soon
as you power on; that's a common, but not universal, way to do
it. If that doesn't work, watch the screen at power-on--it may
tell you what key to use there--or check your system
documentation or check with your hardware vendor.
