Guest Victek Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 I'm getting ready to do a repair/install of Windows 2000 Pro. I've done this many times with XP, but this is the first time with Win2000 and I wonder if there are any unique issues I should be aware of? Assuming the process doesn't crash can I trust that installed applications and data will be unaffected? Any advice appreciated.
