Help installing Windows 2000 on an old laptop

Hello, i'm currently tying to intall Windows 2000 on a laptop from 2008 with a cd but i'm running into a problem...

 

After it says "Setup is Starting Windows 2000" The screen just goes black and the CD Stops Spinning.

I've already tried to press F5 and select "Standard Pc", Press F7, change some BIOS settings......

And yes I've set my Sata Controller Mode to Compatibility

 

What should I do?

 

Thanks in advance!

You can try to rule out the CD out of the equation using a local source (copied to the hard disk) and WINNT.EXE from DOS (beware the approach is complex).

Reference:

the 911CD board is long death, you will need to use the Wayback Machine to check the contents.

Or you could try the WinsetupfromUSB  on a USB stick:
