Running Windows2000 Pro on new PC hardware?......


Recommended Posts

Has anyone had experience recently with loading and running Windows2000 pro

on modern PC hardware? We have a client that had a PC die and all the

software they where using was developed for and was only validated under

Windows2000 pro. So to prevent the expence of potentially redeveloping

anything, they want to just get a new PC and load it up with Windows2000 pro

and the other software.

 

Thanks,

 

Erich

Should be no problem, as long as they get the various drivers

(motherboard, display adapter, network adapter etc.) for

Win2000.

It should be OK

 

Note: Most XP drivers will work if for some chance a win2k driver is not

avail
