Hi,



I have Windows 2000 Installed on My PC (usually quite happily). Service pack
2 is also installed, and up until the past 2 days i'd had no problems.....



Ever since installing the Newest Via 4.32 4 in 1 Drivers, I've had massive
driver troubles, I can't reinstall or install and drivers at all, which is
bad, as i need to update my detanator drivers for my Hercules Geforce 2
mx..... (i'm running in VGA)



Now, whenever i try to install, It goes through the motions of copying the
files to they're required location, but then suggests afters its copied all
the files



"An error occurred during  the installation of the device"

"The System cannot find the file specified"



Intrestingly enough, I tried with many different Detanator driver versions,
same result each time, same happens with the monitor driver (Acer Acerview
56L)



I am logged in as the Administrator with all priveleges enabled....



Also, once i have installed this driver, and after the error, i can actually
change the video display to a desired resolution and refresh rate, and
colour display, but this goes away once i reboot, i.e the Setting disappears
