allen2 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I don't think all XP x86 drivers will work on W2K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodpusher Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 this win2k vga driver should work for both boards, right?http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&changeLang=true&DwnldId=17291 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen2 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) Video drivers aren't the real problem, you might get problems with audio driver and usb drivers most likely. Edited March 3, 2011 by allen2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointertovoid Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 XP drivers have no reason to work with W2k. Forget that.Now in 2011, indications for drivers working with W2k are getting unreliable. Some do work but aren't tested, others do but any reference to W2k was removed on suppliers' web pages, and occasionally some drivers claiming W2k don't install properly, including for nVidia video.You know the name of your Asus and Msi mobos. The right way is to look at Asus and Msi websites and download the proper drivers! But be sure to distinguish between Intel Sata drivers and Sata drivers for some added chip, among which JMicron for instance would be slow and concealed under an other name like Gigabyte.For the Sata drivers, don't operate the controller in IDE mode, it's really much slower. You do need Ahci mode, hence the proper driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomasz86 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 As for the chipset used by both of these mainboards, there are official Intel drivers available for Windows 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
