all My PC's (2 desktops, 1 laptop) are under Win2000 and running Mathematica 4.1 without a glitch. Here is one hint: Mathematica scans the network to see if there is another version of Mathematica running with the same password. It happened to me in the past under both Win98 and Win2000 to cause problem when my network configuration was not valid. Including when I was just disconnected from the net. Since win2000 has a pretty flexible networking environment I suggest you try to change your network settings. I hope this helps, email me back directly if you want, and we can try to solve this over the phone.

I can not get Mathematica 4.1 to run on my new machine (ThinkPad 600X) running Windows 2000. It appears as if the Kernel never gets loaded. I can input a command and the "running" words flash up, but there is no output. If I try to run jsut the Kernel, after putting in the requested info, the programs returns a message that the password is not valid. I can install and run the Mathemtica 4.1 on a Windows 98 machine and run without a problem. Wolfram Research has not been much help, but it seems to be an operating system problem. Has anyone had this problem or know what I might tweak inWin2000 to get this to run? Many thanks in advance George (thiel at us.ibm.com)
