I installed Norton 2003 on my Pc with XP running everything was fine until I decided to set up a dual booting with Server 2000 on my system also. When I did this I had to reinstall XP over the top of my old XP. After that I had to remove Norton, NOW MY PROBLEM: When I install Norton now it comes up to my desktop sits for a minute and then I get a blue screen that says. A problem has been detected & windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your PC. Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation ask your hardware or software manufacture for a windows update. Anyone have any ideas on this? Is there a Registry hack or something for this? Please help. Thanks..
 
Hmm,

I attempted to install Duel Boot too and had problems like yours. Had XP Pro installed, attempted to install Win2K Server, afterwards neither OS would work, I successfully repaired the install of XP using the setup disk and then gave up on the Win2K idea!!..had no probs with Norton 2003 though
