W2K Professional is not starting

[123gad]

I just upgraded from WIN 98 SE to W2K, no major problems, except for NIC card, I needed a new NIC card.
Turned on PC, the W2K Professional screen comes up, and then the screen turns black, no errors nothing,
I tried to boot into safe mode, it comes a little further all the way to the sign-on screen and then it freezes.

Nothing changed.
Any ideas?
Thanks

reboot, hit F8 when prompted, and instead of choosing safe mode - choose "last known good config". if that doesn't work, boot into the recovery console & disable the driver for your network card; instructions available at MS techNet:

Use a win98 boot disk, remove partition and recreate then format the partition and do a clean install of win2k.
