Error Installing W2K

[Guest]

I want to upgrade my old Toshiba notebook to W2K
professional. In the middle of installation, I got an
Kernel_stack_inpage_error which follows a dump of
physical memory and stoping the installation. Can any
one has any idea why this is hapening?

thx Ruben

Greetings --

Have you made sure that your PC's hardware components are capable
of supporting Win2K? This information will be found at the PC's
manufacturer's web site, and on Microsoft's Windows Catalog:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx)

You should, before proceeding, take a few minutes to ensure that
there are Win2K device drivers available for all of the machine's
components. There may not be, if the PC was specifically designed for
Win98. Also bear in mind that PCs designed for and sold with Win9x/Me
very often do not meet Win2K's much more stringent hardware quality
requirements. This is particularly true of many models in Compaq's
consumer-class Presario product line or HP's consumer-class Pavilion
product line. Win2K, like WinNT before it, is quite sensitive to
borderline defective hardware (particularly motherboards, RAM and hard
drives) that will still support Win9x.
