Message: [QUOTE="jmabuse, post: 9654819"] Hello, I have an older Intel SE440BX-2-based computer. This is a Pentium II machine, with a 40 GB Samsung drive in it. The system runs Windows 98SE fine. It will also run SuSE Linux 10.1 fine. I am trying to do a fresh installation of Windows 2000. The installation fails at the reboot for GUI setup, with the dreaded STOP: 0x0000007B Inaccessible Boot Device There are no SCSI devices in the system. I have disconnected everything but the hard drive (on IDE 0) and the CD-ROM (on IDE 1). The hard drive is formatted for NTFS, with a single install partition of 7 GB. I have tried other hard drives as well, including ones as small as 10 GB, and I get the same error. I am not aware of any manufacturer drivers the SE440BX-2 required for W2K. Intel has none on their Web site. Can anyone help? [/QUOTE]
