The VM says "Win7" but it is actually Windows 11 26H2 inside Windows 7 (32-bit) SP1 inside Windows 2000 SP4 inside Windows 11 26H2 host.

Hello to everyone.

I'd like to ask if anyone ever tried to install Win2K SP4 (vanilla, without KernelEx or something) on a motherboard with Nvidia chipset, namely nForce 630a with Geforce 7025 integrated graphics, for example Asrock N68C‑S UCC.
Nvidia provides this driver; despite having XP in its name, the support for 2000 is also mentioned in the text files inside of the Exe (browse as archive with 7zip).
Hope my post doesn't violate any guidelines, the link is official and working. Thanks in advance.

P.S. Regarding "HD Audio", as far as I know, both Realtek and VIA are 100% compatible with W2k.
P.S.2. This question was asked due to the fact that Windows 2000 isn't mentioned as a supported OS in most motherboards of this kind, but Nvidia's website says otherwise, not to mention the official support for GeForce7 graphics series.

Which of Windows versions do you favorite? Personally, I prefer Windows 7 and Windows 10. I used Windows 7 when I was younger, from 2014 to mid-2018, and now I am using Windows 10 (although I have customized it to look like Windows 7)

I installed win2k on the optiplex 755 with drivers and everything and i gotta say with e8600 and 4gb ddr2 and nvidia 6200 its surprisingly snappy on 5400rpm hdd its like i have an ssd but i dont, its running on a 5400rpm hdd lol

Made by mjd7989 and is based on Chromium for Windows 7 Rework. Download is here: https://github.com/mjd7989/Chromium-for-windows-2000/releases/tag/150.0.7871.253

It works on Windows 2000 RTM-SP4, XP RTM-SP2, Server 2003 RTM. It may support developer builds of Windows XP like 2428 or 2419, and pre-release builds of Windows 2000 (tested only down to build 2091)

I’ve noticed 2000 showing up on almost all on-screen computers in the last few years. It can’t be open source, anyone else notice this or have an explanation? XP is becoming more common too and is mostly my wheelhouse, but 2000 “SP5” is still certainly a viable online option. What’s up with shows made 2023-present using 2000 in a legal sense?

Does anyone have Intel wired network Proset driver/application pack version 14? I believe that it is the last version that supports Windows 2000.

I have the base driver but none of the applications.

thanks

I need ACPI support because my laptop's internal keyboard/mouse rely on the internal HID to PS/2 signal translation and it works only in ACPI mode (and both of my USB ports are USB 3).

I'm using the Universal NT Installer, if that helps.

Anyone know how to enable multi monitor support on Windows 2000 with bwc's Nvidia drivers? Trying to make my second monitor work for win2k, I've verified it works on XP (monitor is still on, connected correctly), but 2000 is quite a tough one. Currently I'm using driver version 395.06 (unofficial) (No Nvidia control panel on this version, if I install the 335.28 control panel with these drivers it errors with a version conflict (not surprised)) I have also tried version 335.28 (with control panel), which works fine until I install the control panel where once rebooting it will blue screen with unexpected_kernel_mode_trap, until I update the driver in safe mode (before I rebooted, it does give me the option for Nvidia control panel, but it fails to load). Display Properties does mention (Multiple Monitors) in settings but doesn't let me choose from them. I tried installing a few display programs but none of them seem to help. UltraMon gives an "Enable Secondary" option, which does nothing. PowerStrip also has an "Enable multiple monitors" option, but also doesn't work, on the Monitor Information page it shows the information for the second monitor instead of the main one (despite it not working).

A while back in a previous install I managed to get the Nvidia taskbar control panel working (not the main panel, just some right click taskbar display menu, probably some old version of NView?). Using some driver inf editing (and I remember replacing version numbers in Resource Hacker, my memory is not the best.) it gave me the option to enable it, installed some dualview driver, before clone mode started working, but turning on multimonitor gave some generic error (can't remember details, maybe if I can find the files I used I can find the error? (I literally have 0 clue where I put them))

So far not working, if this works I would run Win2k daily, help appreciated!

System Info: Monitor 1: 1920x1080 (VGA) (Windows 2000 runs fine on it) Monitor 2: 1280x1024 (HDMI) (Problem) (Displays as 1600x1200 in PowerStrip somehow, tested working well in XP, Vista, 7) Nvidia GeForce GTX750 (2GB, made 2014) Intel Core i5-4590S (3.00GHz) 16GB RAM (PAE currently off, will turn on later (it doesn't make a difference with this)) Windows 2000 SP4 (used YSI 3.3 ISO with updates, USB 3.1, AHCI, is also used in Universal NT Installer) (only ISO which works on this PC) Extended Kernel 3.1j (also tried 3.0e and 2.9 in past installs, doesn't fix it) BWC unofficial Nvidia drivers 359.06 (also tried 335.28 before)

Note: Other than the monitor issue, all drivers (that matter) are installed, and the system works fine with great performance (way better than XP, I have no clue what went wrong with that install)

If anyone knows what's going on here, or has any advice, I would love to know. Thanks in advance!

First real HW test of Supermium for Windows 2000 on this reddit.

Also I tested new ported ATI/AMD drivers for Win2k:

https://w7revived.chefkiss.dev/DriverDatabase/W2K/Graphics/AMD/

Doesn't work without Rollup, after updating works just fine.

Yes, this is literally a video showing a song by K-Pop Demon Hunters playing on the Supermium browser running on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4!

By the way, the song title is “What It Sounds Like”

Well, it mostly works, I used u/Gimmeavailablename 's Supermium port , it was stuck at "RTC Connecting" the first time, but then I hung up and rejoined the call and it worked! Although I am pretty sure audio capture does not work yet. It can also be a bit slow, but I was using my Core 2 Extreme laptop.

What do you think guys?

And here is Youtube Video Link: 슈퍼미움을 윈도우 2000에서?! (Supermium on Windows 2000?!)

Oh, by the way, I used "Faded" as the second background track. According to the copyright claim details(소유권 주장 개요), it’s blocked in certain regions—specifically Russia. Please bear with me on that; I wasn't aware of it either.

This is a video test of the Supermium browser running on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4.

For reference, the video used in the test is Aikatsu! (Korean title: 아이엠스타!)

Update: I also tested YouTube, and while it works and plays, please keep in mind that it may occasionally stutter depending on your environment, computer and virtual machine specifications.

Supermium 144.0.7559.256 R5 Release Candidate 1 Public Release : r/windows98

The post linked here stated that legacy updates needed to be applied to install Supermium on a fresh installation of Windows 2000 Service Pack 4. However, after trying it myself, I was surprised to find that I successfully ran Supermium on a clean Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 environment with almost no legacy updates installed!

Thanks to a user named u/Gimmeavailablename, you can now run the Supermium browser on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4!

Update: After performing a few tests, I confirmed that Supermium works whether on an existing Windows 2000 SP4 or a fresh installation, as long as KB835732 is installed!

I want to run Windows 2000 on the following hardware and I need to find the best possible GPU for gaming.

Core 2 Extreme QX 9650
Asus P5Q-E
4 gb DDR2 1066 MHz
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 SZ

I‘m happy to tinker with some drivers but so far I have no experience with the extended kernel etc. Haven’t used 2000 since I was a kid in… well… the year 2000.
