win2kPro pretty screwed up

Tom-boy
OK, so I'm first to admit that I'm not computer literate, but neither is my girlfriend, hence a major problem. I installed Win2kPro a week ago just fine except that Cd-drives drivers weren't exactly right, so that when installing, some of the WINNT files didn't install properly.
