Default 5000A - Trying to get rid of ACPI

Install 2K as ACPI then change it to Standard PC from Device Manager.

I'm doing a Win2K installation and am trying to install without ACPI,
but when I press F5 and select "Standard PC", Win2K install gives
an error message that a keyboard cannot be found.

Is anyone familiar with this problem? Any workarounds other than
enabling ACPI?

Danke,
Rick

Thanks, but I've already tried that. There's no keyboard or mouse
control after rebooting.
