System config: Athlon/750, 512 MB RAM, Abit KA7 Mainboard, Adaptec 29160N SCSI, Intel 100Mbit Ethernet The 4in1 4. 22 drivers as well as the AGP updated 4.
I'm desperately trying to get my ASUS 6600 Pure to run unter Win2K.
System config:
Athlon/750, 512 MB RAM, Abit KA7 Mainboard, Adaptec 29160N SCSI, Intel 100Mbit Ethernet
The 4in1 4.22 drivers as well as the AGP updated 4.03 drivers are installed and working.
I installed the 5.22, 5.25, 5.30 Detonator2 drivers from NVIDIA; the ASUS drivers cause the system to hang during boot-up.
I'm at my wits' end, thus any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanx...

Your system is similar to mine. I also have the KA7. When I installed my Annihilator 2, it work give me a blue screen on boot. Turned out to be a faulty memory chip.
Have you tried to disable the 4x AGP support in the BIOS and see if that works?

Nope, doesn't work.

oh BTW, this probably isn't a hardware problem with the card, since it worked great under NT4...

If you are running a Athlon system, you should have a MINIUM power supply of 250W. Personally, I wouldn't buy anything under 300W, then you are sure you have enough!

Thanks all, I got it working now.
"Standard PC" instead of "ACPI PC" in Device Manager is the key.

That's odd. I have a KA7 and CLAP2 and win2k would not boot unless I had ACPI enabled.
I have a duel P3 Xeon 550 with a Tyan Thunder X motherboard and a Hercules 3D Prophet II 64mb and when I use the 5.22 or 5.3 drivers, I blue screen as soon as I start a game.
