On my household server running Windows 2000 Server, I replaced a flaky (and ancient) Shuttle AK32 mobo (Athlon XP) with an old Gateway P4 1.5GHz mobo I had lying around. I managed to get most everything back operational, but several driver load attempts yield the error message "Data is invalid".

When I do a hardware discovery, it finds (or at least it THINKS it finds) the correct drivers, but I get this mysterious "data is invalid" message. I obviously have a corrupt file or three somewhere, but have no idea where to look or even what to look FOR. Help!!

The most frustrating part is that one of the drivers it's choking on is the one necessary for the CD-ROM drive to work, so I can't fall back to the Win2kServer install CD. I got the NIC working so I got the chipset driver from Gateway. That solved a lot, but even though I now have all the correct drivers, I still get this stupid error. Any ideas?
