I have a strange issue where a used pc that I bought has no video or keyboard control until windows 2000 pro starts to load. My windows 2000 is not loading correctly now, and with no video or keyboard access, not only can I not see whats, wrong, but I cant start safe mode from dos. I do have another pc available, however, and would like to know if there is a way to make a boot disk that will open win2k in safe mode (and hopefully load drivers for my cd rom so that I can repair pro/upgrade to xp pro) Simply putting in the xp pro disk at startup doesnt help. All advice is greatly appreciated.
