I recently tried to install Windows 2000 Professional on a Compaq Presario and recieved a blue screen. I'm pretty sure it isn't "the" blue screen. It says:
Try disabling your Anti-Virus in the BIOS. It gave me that error a few times..and that was the problem.
Or you might want to try, "reburning" the 2000 CD you have.
Now if you have a Legal copy.... you're outa luck.
You could try burning your legal copy and use the copy.. the real one might be messed up or something.

there is no kernel panic in windows, just blue screens in 2k/nt/xp and some fatal bsods in 9x
Fatal BSODs.. pfft.. I get all kinds of weird shit now.
But Fatal Errors are nothing more than mismanaged memory..due to poor programming on Microsofts part.
One programs allocated so much RAM, another program tries to use that RAM.. (read and/or write) .. and it throws up a Flag. Hence the BSOD.
yes u can, i use 2 never ever get them and i didnt know there was such thing, but then one day, i got my 2nd processor, then all hell broke loose. most of the bsods r something like "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL" or others caused by nv4_disp.dll
i dont memorize my stop codes

i do too. but i was because my card takes advantage of DirectDraw. but i solved it by setting the interrupt affinity to one of my proccesors. i changed the affinity of my snd card (and everything related to sound), tv card, video card (and agp), keyboard, and mouse. so far i have not seen a BSOD since then (this was like a month or 2 ago). but i dont think this will fit in your situation.
