IMPORTANT
If Windows 2000 Setup did not find a suitable installation
device, it will stop and prompt you for additional
Manufacturer’s Drivers. Follow the on-screen instructions
for adding the necessary drivers.
IMPORTANT
If existing partitions are found, delete all of them first
before proceeding. Use the on-screen instructions to
perform this task.
TIP
Certain PCs will limit the size of the partition that you can
create. Windows 2000 supports a boot partition size up to
32 Gigabytes on a NTFS formatted drive.
Use the entire hard disk if possible. If your system has a
limitation, create the largest partition you can, and leave
the leftover space as unpartitioned. (You can create and
format the unpartitioned space later.) The minimum
partition size required for this installation is 4 Gigabytes.
