Microsoft has set up 2000 so that program “controls” will not work unless an entry is made in the Windows Registry saying the they were properly installed. Also, some of the support programming is in DLL files (which required for the program to be able to talk to the hardware). Therefor, unlike Windows 98, neither Autoload or Hardware Search will run without a full Quantum MCA, Quantum NaI or Quantum Demo install.
