Hello Terje

This is a known bug withing S4. I am pretty sure that your HD is bigger than 8
GB. There was a change within NTFS5 file format that S4 cant handle. To be
honest this is not really a bug because when S4 was developed this NTFS5 wasnt
out. Nevertheless there tree possible solutions for your problem.

1. Partitionate your HD to partitions smaller than 8 GB. (I think you dont want
to do that!)

2. There was a patch once. I think it was somewhere on the millenium web site
but i could not found it right now. Maybe the removed it.

3. Thats what i did. Just copy S5 manually from CD to a folder of your choice.
If you start it S4 will say something about missing files. Search form them  on
the CD and copy them too. It was quite a while that i did that so my description
is a bit too brief but try it for yoourself.

BTW: S5 didnt have any problems with W2000 and is really superior to S4.

Bye Ingo
