Hi Afc,
Based on the specs I saw about this drive I see no reason why it
shouldn't. Are you having problems about booting from the drive? If
so, please tell us more details about the problem.

You're trying to unlock what password? Is it the BIOS system security
password or the Win2K system password?

From all your comments, I really can't understand your logic about
making a bootable CD when your real problem is how to unlock the
locked Win2K PC. What you need is to follow the instructions from this
link:
Daniel Petri Ltd
How can I gain access to a Windows 2000/XP/NT computer if I forgot the
administrator's password? How can I reset the administrator's password
if I forgot it?

If this helps, please let me know.

Hi,
First of all your coments / suggestions were very reasonable, BUT I
want to explain my logic. I wanted to unlock a PC ethically. To do
this you need to by a license of ERD commander 2003 from Winternals.
I did this. However you need to create and burn the ISO image to a
cdr /cd-rw. However the complication is I did not have a good enough
Burning software to allow me to do this. Now I have NERO and all is
well.
Using Password cracks as you suggest has it's downsides and is not
without it's risks and damge factor to the O/S, nor can they reset the
admin password. I was able to with ERD commander.
Thanks for trying to help...
