As an aside, I put Win2000 RC2 on my machine, and it set up my old ISA
Soundblaster16, as well as my Matrox Millineum G200 AGP video card.

To my great surprise, it actually found and set up everything on my machine
perfectly in one fell swoop. Not like the good old days with 95 where I
added a component at a time until all was running more or less correctly.
