Tracy,
I don't have Win 2000, but I don't think the video intercept is necessary for
2000. I suspect that when you made the auto-run CD, you made it at your home
PC which does use Win XP. Since you use the video intercept with XP, JFW
expects it needs to install it on the 2000 machine.
Try bringing your JFW CD in to the work PC, install JFW with your key, make an
auto-run CD there using the configuration you have there, then you can remove
your key and uninstall JFW.

Hi List again,
Thanks for the response!
I have another couple of questions related to this answer - sorry, if you
knew me, you'd know I'm always harrassing my IT guru with these sort of
questions. I'm actually an AT Assistant in a school lab, so I know a little
bit about everything...but generally a whole lot of nothing. ;)
1) We're actually running Win 2000 - not WinXP like you mentioned. Does
that make a difference?
2) If I install the video intercept, could it theoretically mess up other
things installed on the computer? Like I said in my earlier message, we've
got a lot running in the background on the student/staff computers, so I
don't really want to randomly install things I don't really understand on
other people's computers. (I already bother my IT guru enough as it is. ;)
Thanks again for any and all help you can provide! If it's just not a
feasable option, I think I'll just make everyone wander into my lab in the
end, but at least I can say I tried!
Tracy
