Reinstall the the video drivers or update them so win2k can use them..
If you are not sure what kind of video card you have use this program to tell you
all you need to know and a link for the drivers..

aida32 download From:
Aida32 - Enterprise System Information 3.93
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download183.html
Size: 3.1Mb
This is the one I like , It will show you YOUR
CD Prouct ID Numbers and other SN#,of software you have
installed on your machine...so you can print them out
for safe keeping...
Just click on Software item (on the left) and then right click on the items
on the right and select copy and then open NotePad and paste it in
and print it out and put one with YOUR win2k cd...

James, Often just going out to Microsofts Windows Update Site and scanning for video
driver updates will correct your video problem. Good luck. Ron
