When I boot up a system with W2K Pro, I get an isapnp.sys error is corrupt error message. I went to Microsoft's website and found this-
Start the computer from the Windows 2000 CD-ROM.
At the "Welcome to Setup" screen, press R to repair, and then press C to start Recovery Console.
At the C:\Winnt prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

expand cd-romdriveletter:\i386\isapnp.sy_ c:\winnt\system32\drivers\isapnp.sys

For example, type:

expand d:\i386\isapnp.sy_ c:\winnt\system32\drivers


After the file is successfully expanded, type exit to quit Recovery Console, and then restart the computer.

I copied the command exactly, but when it tries to copy the selected file, it gives me an error that says "Access denied". I've tried it from the cd, and tried it from a floppy and still same error. Is there anyway around this??

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
