My wife's mother board failed.
I took both her hard drives out and
installed them in another computer I had.
It starts to boot gets well past the bios but it hangs up
were it says on the screen "Starting Windows" above a wide
white line.
Does Windows 2000 only work on the mother board it
was installed on?

Buy your wife a new Mac. She will show her appreciation in ways you
have not even dared to dream about. Jerry
I don't think so Jerry :)

I agree 110% with Jerry. Get a Mac. She'll appreciate it, (but maybe
you will not want to hear her asking why didn't you do it before).

I already run Linux. I don't need a Mac to run Linux :)
I tried to get her to run Linux but all her friends
were running Windows.

The smart money will go and immediately get an Intel based Mac.
Paul you are too smart and too creative to not be on the best and
nicest equipment.
On the new Macs you can run Windows, when you have to....
Linux when you don't care to be bothered by MS ....
and Mac OS all the rest of the time.
When we were 15 computers, 20 years ago, we stopped using Windows.
Today we are 100+ and counting, 98% are Macs, ( the rest are some
pretty dog-tired Sun Workstations) and essentially all we do is
engineering work.

Naw I'll stick with Intel Linux Gnome and Redhat and one or
two Windows computers for stuff I can't get on Linux.
I have everything set up for that scenario.

Reeves, I'm a forum lurker who's interested in rotary engine
installations in homebuilt aircraft. I'm interested in whether or not
you or your colleagues have any experience running SolidWorks Office on
the new Intel-based Macs. I was a MacIntosh afficionado for years until
I began using SolidWorks several years ago. I would love to get back to
using a Mac if I could run SW (2006) just as fast as I presently can on
my Win XP Pro. If a new Mac would work for me, this Pentium IV would go
to my daughter (or into the trash). She'd be delighted to get it because
she has had very little exposure to Macs.
