Howdy folks:
 
I've been attempting to update a windows 98 machine to windows 2000
professional.  As the setup procress continues through it's thing - it
builds a programs list (and wants to check it twice, I'm sure).  It
scans the entire hard drive.....makes a note of a few important programs
in C:\Program Files, than says....."processing system files".
 
At that point....it crashes.....saying "ntkern" or something has an
invalid page fault in module "kernal32.dll" (nice how that is, eh?).
I've reloaded 98 on top of itself, i've disabled all running programs,
i've changed the memory stick, I've done everything I can *think* to do
to solve this problem and I **really** don't want to have to reload from
scratch.
 
Anyone got suggestions on this?
 
Thanks in advance,
Jay Fuller
