iPanel and Windows 2000

I just upgraded my PC from P3 Celeon to P4-1. 6GHz with an Asus P4S333 MB. I installed W2K Server on the weekend and everything went fine. This afternoon I bought the iPanel and I can't get Windows to boot anymore.

I just upgraded my PC from P3 Celeon to P4-1.6GHz with an Asus P4S333 MB. I installed W2K Server on the weekend and everything went fine. This afternoon I bought the iPanel and I can't get Windows to boot anymore. It would hang at Starting Windows 2000 and from time to time, I get a message telling me I need to reinstall ntkernal.exe. Well, if I need to re-install the OS because of this, I'll return the iPanel. But I don't think putting in add-on like this would upset Windows. Ahy thoughts are welcome, thanks.

I found only one article in English that showed problems with the iPanel - http://www.jimhearne.co.uk/ipanel/ . It lists several conflicts. It also speaks of a bios fix though your motherboard may not need it.
Try booting from your CD (which you probably have) and repairing your installation (which you probably also have).
Did Windows start to fail after you installed the Software for the iPanel or before you even started?
It is a funny thing with W2k and USB ports sometimes installing the software first helps. You would think it was the opposite, but it does.
You may have to disconnect the iPanel, reinstall W2k, go to your device manager and note the IRQ's. Then, try to reconnect the iPanel.
