Win98

Alright. My computer has these: Which of the PCI-E slots are you using? I would assume the PCI-E 16x. Would this be a good card to use? From what I have read so far, it is supported by 2k. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130780939409&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en

I dont have any external graphics cards. I'll look around and see if i can find one on ebay. Would the GeForce 6600 handle basic games?

Thats a good setup for 2k. I'll have to look into finding something of similar nature. Thanks!

I guess the best thing for me to do is find an older (But still decent) PC that has drivers that will work with 2k. What is your current setup, Tomasz?

Alright, Ill do that. Thanks!

How would i go into one of the older drivers and make it work with 2000? The catalyst runs fine for the older ones. I just don't have a driver that will install, because it thinks it only works on XP.

No there isn't. It displays under "Display Adapters", as it should. I don't think that its the driver at this point, I think its that the catalyst isn't installed. How exactly do you go in and make it where it will work on 2k? If i could do that to one of the older drivers, such as 8-10, I could install the catalyst because the installer is in a different layout, and i can get to all of the buttons on the installer. Also, the 11.12 that you uploaded is for vista, if that matters.

The 12-6 driver installed successfully through device manager, but I still cant change the resolution or the colors. When I tried to run the installer in the 12-6, it says it isn't compatible with the OS i'm running.

I have tried to do it manually. I'll try your driver. Thanks! I wish there was KernelEx for 2k (Like there is for 98),Or is there already one? I haven't had any luck finding a download. Edit: I tried your driver, and still get..

Alright.. I redownloaded HFSLIP, and got 2000 successfully installed (Shows the "Powered by extended kernel at bootup screen, and it says 5.1 in the properties) but i'm still having issues with the graphics card. I have extracted and tried manual install on a few versions of the software, and im about to download more from the AMD site. I cant use the catalyst on the later drivers, because AMD made the install screen too big, and with the set resolution, you cant select anything to make it install. Thanks!

Ill go ahead and redownload it. (My internet runs about 60Kb/s so it will take a few hours) Ill report back to you what happens. Thanks! What would cause a source not to be clean? A previously modified ISO?

IE 5 was installed, and I believe that your update brings it up to 6, and in the computer properties, there wasn't anything related to USP5.1. It said SP4. So, I decided to start from scratch.. Redownloaded HFSLIP_ia,7z, and went through the procedure. Everything looked to complete fine, integrated the raid driver, made into an ISO, and when i go to install, when i get to the point "Setup is copying files", it tells me that some files are missing (Cant remember off of the top of my head, and i'm not going to try to re-install tonight to see because i need to sleep). I tried the process again on a different computer, and still got the same missing files (Im using a flash drive to install, By the way.). When i would press esc to skip those certain files (There were at least 50 of them),it finished copying the files it could locate, it rebooted like it should, but when it gets past the windows 2000 boot screen it sits on a flashing _ for eternity. Not sure why it the files were missing, but they are.. (I'm starting to think that this OS doesn't like me) Edit: The files missing are kbdbe.dll, kbdbene.dll,kbdbr.dll, ect..

Yes, This is the ISO created with the HFSLIP. Uninstall programs doesnt open correctly, and nothing appears when the windows directory is opened.. Ill boot another hard drive and delete it manually from the other OS. Edit: Alright, I got to the directory, and i uninstalled it, and everything works normal now... I looked in the installer log for it, and there was an error towards the end. Below are pictures of the error, and some of what it does with the UURollup installed. http://imageshack.us/g/1/9793011/ Thanks!

After the Daily UURollup. I have no other software (besides 7zip) installed.

I tried to follow the instructions, it just didnt come across my mind that i was supposed to do that... I found the daily.. But still, after installing it, the OS is unusable (Is there a way for me to uninstall or remove the files, so that I don't have to reinstall again), because I cant open anything, move files, use device manager, ect.. I'll try one of the older drivers, but i'm not sure the one I have doesn't work with it, because i cant use device manager, and the screen resolution is messed up, and i cant continue the installation, because i cant see what to click This is what I mean: Uploaded with ImageShack.us Sorry for the crappy picture..

Alright, I feel like a complete id*** (Why does it sensor this word?)-- I thought by archive you meant the page with all of the UUrollup downloads and what not... Didnt get that I was supposed to "Windows 2000 archive" link, and go through that... Im going to see if this fixes it! I feel retarded.. Ok, I got the correct thing installed, and it lets me get the graphics installer past where i could get it before, BUT the screen resolution is messed up and i cant get to any of the keys to tell it to install, AND its doing just like the other stuff did- I cant use device manager (Doesnt open anything when i click it), I cant move things on my desktop, ect... Why does this happen? (Sorry to double post)

I did this (Except i used "Windows2000-UURollup-v10c-x86-ENU.exe" instead of daily, because there is no daily(Scratch that).) I downloaded and unpacked it, everything went fine, I restarted my computer and what not, and it was slow, and 1/2 of my applications wouldnt open. As for the graphics, I had already tried that driver, but was looking for another because in the middle of the installation, the installer just disappears.. I dont know if the UUrollup would fix it, and i didn't get a chance to unpack the installer and do it manually, because device manager, along with control panel wouldn't open. Edit: As for the graphics driver, when i unpack it and do it manually, it says that windows was unable to find a driver for the device.. And, the UUrollup did it again, so once again, Reinstalling. Thanks!

Since you use the ATI cards, you wouldnt happen to have a driver for a HD 4200 lying around, Would you? Im searching, but not having much luck. Thanks!

Thanks! I got it to install on my desktop, which is awesome, but it still gets stuck at the same place on my laptops... I'll just use this for a while. Now the only issue I have is finding a ATI radeon HD 4200 driver for 2k (Not quite sure they made one, and all 3 of my computers have this card)

I really have no idea what im doing when it comes to the HFSLIP.... Im a bit lost... When i try to use nlite to slip the cab file you told me to download, it says unsupported file for some reason, even though it says cab files are supported... Odd.

So after ive run it once and its made the folders, I run it again and it puts the files into them? Alright. Ill give it a try.. Yes, that is a screenshot of my laptop. Ill download that. Thanks!

I would really like to install it on my laptop (Because I use it a lot more), and im away from the desktop until tomorrow, when I get home. I tried to download the HFSLIP, but when I tried to go to the download page, it says it doesnt exist, so I dont know if i clicked the wrong link for it, or what. Thanks! Edit: I got it to download, and ive got the folders unpacked. This is my motherboard: Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Well, I cant find any SATA drivers anywhere, so i guess im stuck for now..

It is SP4. I formatted in windows 7...Tried NTFS, and Fat32 and neither worked. On my toshiba laptop, I just have 7 installed, and on the Lenovo, I have XP and 7. There is no IDE option on either of the laptops, just the desktop.. I dont know where to get the sata drivers, or where to put them on the disc. ( Could I make a separate disc, and do the F6 thing at the start of the setup, or does it only support floppy discs?) Tomasz,, What sources or update do you mean, and how would i slipstream them to the disc? For the 8gb ram thing, do you have a link to download the program to enable that? I will try to find the SATA drivers, and attempt to learn how to integrate them.. Ive never had to do any of this stuff under 98SE, but then again it doesn't like sata.

Alright, Im trying to install windows 2000 on one of my computers. On my 2 laptops, I go to install, and setup gets stuck on "Setup is installing windows 2000" and sit there endlessly. On my Desktop, it would bluescreen somewhere near the beginning of the instilation (Before the "Setup is starting windows 2k") so I toyed around with the Bios and changed AHCI to IDE, and it gets to the format screen, it looks like its formatting fine, but when it gets to 100% i get "Setup was unable to format your drive. It may be damaged", which I know its not, because I have Windows 7 installed on it, and it runs fine. Is there anything else I need to change, or any speical drivers I need to get it past either of those points? Thanks! Laptop specs: Toshiba satellite, Athlon x2 2.0ghz (32bit) 3gb ram. Laptop2: Lenovo z565, Phenom x2 3.0ghz 6gb ram (Ill reduce it since 2k cant handle that) Desktop HP Pavillion 2.8ghz athlon x2, 8gb ram (Ill do the same with this) Thanks!
