I am about to install a software product which requires MDAC 2.7, but will
NOT work with MDAC 2.8.

I am about to install Server 2000 and service pack 4, my question is what
version of MDAC will be installed, and where if nescessary acan I find the
MDAC 2.7 upgrade?

Any help would be much appreicated.

Use the component checker tool to verify what version. Windows 2000 gold is
ver 2.5

Hi,

MDAC 2.7 is available here (use "MDAC 2.7 Service Pack 1 Refresh"):
