Haven't you heard me say I get a new MB just because I can't resist the
deals on last months hot - now obsolete - MBs, but I almost never
install W4 or eCS. I just clone the HDD from the previous machine.
Just to be comfortable you can set SNAP to 1024 first. If the chip set
is close I have gotten W2K to boot enough to load the MB CD.

I tried it many months ago - I let eCS install it. At that time it
seemed primitive compared to SNAP and supported just about only one chip
type, which was not in any of my cards.
