A lot of disks will not install unless you have Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Many disks have requirements that W2K does not have... they are found in
Service Pack 1 in some cases, Service Pack 2 in others. And soon Service
Pack 3, where security upgrades require it now.
A lot of software with graphics, games, and images or security features to
prevent theft require Windows XP and usuallhy Service Pack 2.
Windows 2000 ended on March 31, 2000. Windows 2000 End of Life was June 30,
2004.
Someday, you guys in Thailand will have to face the future. Windows 2000 was
great, but it has been gone for nine years awreddy.
There are still security updates for windows 2000 so its far from dead.
It could be argued its the best OS around for single core machines as
it has had
most of the bugs fixed since its older than xp.
I only moved to xp since i upgraded to quad core from single core.
W2k only recognised
2 cores hence the move.
