Has anyone tried looking into Haswell on Windows 2000? If someone is willing to install Win2k or has installed Win2k on Haswell, please post here.

I looked into it when Haswell first came out, only to find that no motherboard manufacturer offered any drivers whatsoever for Windows XP, much less Windows 2000 (aside from Intel's own chipset device software).

BWC... Thank you I've been thinking of buying NUC for a long time but was afraid of 2000 compatibility. This is good information.

Intel's latest Chipset Device Software (2/25/2014) just went up, and it looks like they've dropped support not only for Windows 2000, but Windows XP as well.

I have already tried offical version 6.14.10.5441.

It is haswell 1st generation XP RTM driver.

The 5445 is 2nd.

The 5449 is 3rd.

There is the unofficial Graphics Drivers 6.14.10.5441 (aka 14.56.0.5441), which support XP, and Haswell and IvyBridge, floating around the net.

Attached is an inf for it, with the erroneous (but cosmetic) "Intel® HD Graphics 3000" corrected to "Intel® HD Graphics 4000", as it should be.

The 5441 driver seems to be the last one that supports XP.

None of the later drivers have even a leaked or unofficial version for XP, AFAIK.

Am I wrong?

You're right. I stand corrected.

edit - please note that the following thread categorically states that they don't even work on XP.

Please note that said post now points to another (last page) post indicating the same as BWC. Intel doesn't have their *ahem* together at all. :(
