Hi Guys, Thanks for your attention.

I have been contacted by a client that wants me to upgrade thier server box from NT to Win2K.

Whats the deal with upgrading this? Am i best to just slap a Win2K disk in thier and let it install over the top of NT (if this is possible)

or

Should I format the drives from a DOS Prompt and install with a clean slate, this is new teritory for me, any advice or suggestions.

It may be worth baring in mind that the current OS is having problems recognising all the hard drives and those it has found it is presenting the wrong capacity for, is this a common fault for NT or are the drives perhaps corrupt?

Thanks in Advance.
