I've been alerted that the steps didn't work for one person... the problem they
had was the cam drivers wouldn't load.

I recalled that when I originally tried to force an installation, I installed
the Logitech USB Camera drivers from the VC CD.  The pages have been updated to
include those steps (without screen shots).

This weekend I'll load a spare machine with Windows 2000 and triple-check the
entire procedure.

For those that try the proposed solution(s), please let me know how things turn
out so I can update the instructions accordingly if necessary.

Thanks,
Rob



I created a "How-to" here:
http://www.abs-robotics.com/tips/install/win2k/vc.htm

The instructions have been broken down into 4 pages to compensate for all
the application snap-shots.  There are approximately 50 steps, most of which
comprise of "clicking next/continue/finish/OK".  The pages may take some
time to load on a slow connection.

I performed the installation twice.  The first time was to see if my hunch
would even work.  The 2nd time, I made all the images.

To test out the installation, I removed the batteries from an RCX so VC
would perform the 2.0 firmware update.  I then (painfully) stepped through
all the
training videos again to make sure VC, RIS, and RCX interaction worked the
way it should.
