    I have a friend that has wind 95. He has asked me for help to upgrade to Wind 2000(my os). I did my own upgrade from 98 and learned alot of info. on different conflicts.drivers, etc. My question is, can I expect alot more problems than I had with my own upgrade? I plan on helping him this weekend? I will be identifying his system first,chipset,mobo,drives,etc. any comments will be welcome. Thank You GRYPHYN.

    If win2k does not have the drivers check the company's page for new one's, if you can't find anything you can use a site like www.driverguide.com to find some.
    Also check the computer agains the min specs for 2k, if it's running '95 there is a good chance it might not be good enough to run 2k.
