W2k, blue screen

[VISCONTI]

I have read that is possible to play AH in w2k professional.

P-II 333
128MB
Nvidia riva TNT2 Model 64 32MB

When I start AH i see only a blue screen.
Can someone help me?

After trying Win ME I changed back to W2K and it works just fine in my computer (P3 700@933 256Mb, Prophet2 MX and SB-live).

Is the "Blue screen of death" showing any messages in top of it?
I got some problems 'cause I installed W2K over ME without formatting HD first but after I formatted my hd and made "clean" install It have worked great.

Don't know if this will help, or not, but i got a blue screen when i tried to select 32 bit video with my Voodoo 3 2000. all i had to do was delete the video.cfg file, and the next time i went into AH it asked me to select the video options just like when you first install it.

good luck!

All settings show only a blue screen whitout any message.
When i select Z buffer i see an error message :

Initialization failed whit -3 mainGR3D_FAILED -3

I have Win98 2nd ed. and W2k installed in my PC, all HD are FAT32 formatted. In Win98 is all ok at all settings.

Man, that's really wierd.  My brother also had a blue screen with no message covering the top half of the screen.  This occurred about 1 out of 3 times starting AH under Win2k.

I have never had this problem, and I use Win2k exclusively.  Strangeness....
