Bill...
if this is the release copy of w2k, then it should work fine and have all the
drivers..
carlhermann, who is on my open forum, did an install on his 770X or Z and
reports all is fine..
ask him..
i have been playing with the RC2 version, buth doing an upgrade over the preload
and a fresh load..
on 12gig and 25gig drives..
so far, except for a bad copy of one file all is working very well.. :-)
