Windows 2000 on Samsung nc10 (Intel 945GSE + ICH7M)

[niemand]

Hi,

Anyone knows if it's doable?

I don't have the netbook at hand but the specs are here: http://www.saveonsamsung.com/Samsung_NC10_Black_493129.html

I last year tried Win2K on ICH9-based machine (Vaio VGN-AW11Z/B) but failed so do I have similarly bleak prospects here??

Cheers:)

Might work...

The SATA drive will be your biggest issue.

HOWEVER, most drivers for XP work fine under 2000.

There's a thread over in the Windows 2000 forum discussing running Win 2K on ICH8/9/10 series motherboards:

Perhaps there's some ideas in that thread that might help.

(I have an interest in this as I've got a motherboard (Gigabyte GA-P35-GS3) which has Intel ICH9 chipset that I am hoping one day to finish up and install Win 2K on.)

Yes, my shot at Vaio on ICH9 failed exactly due to the reason. Hopefully, ICH7-based Samsung will be more Win2K-friendly;) But I'm still curious if anybody tried it? I see there are quite a few people who struggle with the thought of leaving Windows 2000 for good.

Hi, niemand.

I migrated Intel Matrix Storage Manager 7.6 for Windows 2000.

It supports AHCI mode ICH6/ICH7/ICH8/ICH9/ICH10/PCH

You can download here

Does it support ICH8-M?
