Can't install win2000 on a partition!
This is a discussion about Can't install win2000 on a partition! in the Windows Software category; Well, I wanted to do a fresh re-install of windows 2000 so I could use the ACPI for my mobo. Anyhoo, when I try to choose the partition to install it on, it says I need to use a Windows 2000 compatible partition.
Well, I wanted to do a fresh re-install of windows 2000 so I could use the ACPI for my mobo. Anyhoo, when I try to choose the partition to install it on, it says I need to use a Windows 2000 compatible partition. What does that mean? I have them all on fat 32 and I want to keep it that way so I can dual boot with win98. The only drive it wants to install on it the one with all of my mp3s on it. I don't know what makes that drive so special. Please help me.

OP
Well, I got it to work. When I tried to install it from booting from a CD, I would get the error. However, when I tried installing it from win98, it worked! Why didn't it work from booting from a cd?
