A challenge? I want to install Windows 2000/XP on a PC of 2013
Hey! I want to experiment so I am interested in the installation of Windows 2000 or XP (preferably 2000) on an Acer PC to 2013. All I want to do about this is to use internet, sound, print and play video games in the 1990s. (Let's ignore the judgment of me not being is not happy about the future, cope).
So, I know it's possible. I don't know if the features that I want are possible.
This who should I research/do to make this happen?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
(PS. I have a Windows 2000 laptop, in case I need to use it for something in this process)

I recommend the use of VMware Player, see Windows 98SE and Windows XP example here:

How to install Windows 2000 on Equium A200-1VO?
Hello
Can someone help me?
I would like to install Windows 2000 on the Toshiba Equium A200-1VO laptop, but I need the drivers to do this.
I have tried the Toshiba web page but cannot find the drivers.Can someone please?
Thank you
You will not be the drivers because this Vista designed for laptop is not supported by this old operating system. Maybe you can find the drivers for Windows XP Home edition, but not for W2000.
All you can do is search for the drivers on the net and hope you have success with it.
I don't know why you would do this, but perhaps you should accept that at some point Toshiba must say stop and don't waste time with the support of the older operating system. I also believe that 0.01% people want to use this old operating system on new generation laptops.There is no sense to make support for W2000. What do you think about this?

Hello
I am an independent developer and absolutely need to install multiple operating systems on my * Satellite L300 - 16 M (PSLB0E) *: it is very important for me because I need to check the functioning of the software under each environment for real (not not using solutions like VMware, for example).
Well, then, right now, I did a backup Acronis image of original full HDD, and then deleted the original scores of WinRE and data, reduced and moved from disk to the partition of Vista... and installed System Commander 8 to prepare my future multi - initialize. For the moment, everything sounds right: Vista works perfectly!
Also note, I have configured the SATA in the BIOS Setup in "Compatibility" mode just because I don't need AHCI in my type of use!
Second step: now, * I have to install Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) EN *. Of course, I am aware that the sticking point is the SATA/AHCI driver, which is not present in the CD of Win 2 K... So, I just make a new CD integrating these drivers using nLite; now, I tried using the driver Intel site on Intel 82801 HEM / HBM SATA AHCI controller (ICH8M) and page drivers Toshiba XP.
But it does not completely: the Win 2 K install begins... All the drivers are well charged (including the ones AHCI) and just after this stage of loading, I get a black screen with just a blink of an eye cursor at the top left of the screen... indefinitively :-(
I tried also to SATA mode "AHCI" in the BIOS and it's the same thing.
So, what to do next?
I used the wrong AHCI drivers? Do I need to integrate as many drivers Toshiba (about chipset, display, sound) in the installation of Windows 2000 using nLite CD? I mean the capacity of the CD is not reached.
Is there a way or a tutorial to install Windows 2000 somewhere? For XP, I think it will be easier because SP3 seems to support AHCI, but earlier, my problem is to install Windows 2000: Although Microsoft wants to leave-it, there are many professionals who still use-it... And my work as a developer, is to make my software also works on this OS! * I really need to find a way to install it on this computer! *
Awaiting your response informed and all the tips or idea that could help me to complete the task.
In a word: HELP! Oops!Post edited by: eanon
> No I used the wrong AHCI drivers?
Perhaps.As far as I know that you need the crib Intel Matrix Storage and in this package, you will find the SATA drivers.
http://www.Intel.com/support/chipsets/IMSM/index.htmThere you have to choose to get the latest driver - version PV-> Win 2000 8.5-> there you must take the package from point 3
Good luck

in fact, I want to install windows os (not authentic) because I'm fond of counter strike
so, mac support this game?
or it takes 8 GB ram to play counter strike?
operating system windows (not authentic) will cause no effect on mac?
If I install the windows on mac operating system, I will award 58 GB in the windows operating system and remains to mac, goes no problem in the future, due to the windows operating system?
ALSO POINT OUT THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF INSTALLING WINDOWS ON A MAC.
operating system Windows (not authentic)
This means that you ask for assistance on the use of a pirate copy of Windows?
If you install Windows, you have the advantage of being able to run Windows and the inconvenience of having to deal with all the viruses and stuff for which Windows systems are prone.
Why not just buy the Mac version? It seems relatively inexpensive: http://store.steampowered.com/app/730/

I want to install Windows XP on Satellite A200 - 1 M 4
I want to install windows xp A200 1 M 4...
What do I do?Please answer my question.
Hi hilalay
In this forum, you will find hundreds of similar questions / answers
I put t know what you want to know exactly, but the point is that your laptop A200 - 1 M 4 seems to belong to the series of PSAE0E.Choose this slot serial number form download if you need XP compatible drivers.
The XP installation is not difficult. You must include the SATA driver in the XP CD. This is necessary in order to make the visible HARD drive and reinstall XP.
[Check this way to integrate a SATA AHCI driver into a Windows XP installation CD | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB85017Z0000R01.htm]
Finally, install all drivers Toshiba XP available and enjoy.
By the way; the update of the BIOS XP would be desirable also because without BIOS XO some FN buttons will not work correctly.

Where can I get the drivers?Hello
The SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) driver must be installed first, if you want to reinstall the operating system XP on this laptop.
The Intel Matrix Storage Manager can be downloaded also from Intel or the Toshiba Web site the page we. You should know that your laptop has been designed and delivered only for the American market, so you must use the Toshiba drivers from an American Internet site.However, I found many comments on Intel Matrix Storage Manager here in this forum.
Then maybe you should use the Forum search option advanced for more useful discussions on this topic.Buddy Bye

Hello
If we have the license microsoft windows server 2012 and I want to install Windows server 2008.
Is this possible?
Thank you
This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)
If you give us a link to the new thread we can point to some resources it -
can we install windows 2000 on the i3 system
can we install windows 2000 on the i3 system
Depends on if you can get the drivers for your Windows 2000-compatible hardware; you need to verify that hardware manufacturers laicists site to check the drivers. Most of the hardware manufacturers are not even the creation of drivers for Windows XP that is newer than Windows 2000.
Check out the thread below (specifically the post from Andre Da Costa) from earlier today about the installation of Windows 2000 as a virtual machine.

I want to remove pre-installed windows 8 and want to install windows xp in hp 6 but idont know how to install
Hello
First thing to do is to go to the HP website and see if the XP drivers are available for your model of HP.
http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
If there is no XP drivers, XP does not work for you.
If the XP drivers are available, looking for a place to buy XP, which is a terrible thing to do as Microsoft did not sell XP for many years.
You run the very serious risk of buying pirated XP software from anywhere on the Net.
Stay with your preinstalled Windows 8.
See you soon.
