I can't believe ! It works

How did it end ?

I found an iso with win2k sp4 on the mrgass pages and installed it.

Now everything works perfectly.

I changed the licenses with mine and therefore I think I am in compliance with the law :-)

As soon as possible I will try to compare the folders of the 2 installations to understand which driver was giving problems.

No SATA/AHCI label in the bios, the only voices about HDD are Advanced / Storage Configuration / Ata-Ide Configuration (Disabled/compatible/enhanced).

If I choose Compatible I can setup Legacy IDE Channels (Sata1, 2, 3, 4 / Ide1, Sata2, Sata4 / Sata1, Sata3, Ide1 / Pata only).

I setup Compatible/Pata only and grab this picture.

go to bios and change the SATA operation to ATA or IDE mode not AHCI

you can found AHCI driver for windows 2000 in wlu site of blacwingcat but until now you can go to bios and change sata mode

I'm using a Pata HDD and there are no Sata disk plugged to the hardware. I will try your solution tomorrow

Seems to be useful but I can't load the system yet, I can press F8 during the loading but it crashes to the error mesage (blue screen).

Hi all !

I have a win2000 licence key since 1999 and I installed this OS on every computer or disk I buyed from 1999 at today. 

I lost my cd-rom in 2003 but it was not a problem. It was enough to copy all the old disk files on new disk and there was no problem to run, because the OS is not PAE. 

In these days I needed to change the mother board with a "modern" ASRock G41M-VS3 (year 2011) but it gives me every kind of error message.   

The last is : stop: 0x0000007b <0xf601b84c,0xc0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000> inaccessible_boot_device, and I fear it's from the hardware of the motherboard. 

Can someone confirm my opinion ?
