Re-installing W2K on a laptop

[Guest The Seabat]

What is the best way to wipe a hard drive, loaded with Vista, clean

so that I can install Windows 2000 on it?? Do I just let the Windows

install disk clean and format it?? Or is there some mystical

hocus-pocus that needs to be performed?? Thanks.

Re: Re-installing W2K on a laptop

 

The first thing you do is to visit that Laptop manufacturers site to see if

win2k drivers are avilable, and if the laptop has a sata drive ensure that

raid/sata drivers are avilable, for installation via *floppy*

If they are not, dont try, if they are boot from win2k cd and delete

partitions prior to creating anew and installing
