GD 2W10 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 (edited) Hi, I am wanting to install Windows 2000 on a Dell Latitude 5490, a Kaby Lake machine. I've installed XP with XP2ESD 1.7 by @George King, and Windows Vista and Windows 7 on that laptop. And before anyone says it, no, I am not going to use a VM. And also, the legacy internal boot wouldn't be a problem, as even though it isn't supported, I can use something like WinSetupfromUSB to get around it as legacy external boot is supported. What would I need to do to get 2000 running on the Dell? The laptop has no CD drive, so I would have to install with USB. I have a SATA m2 SSD and USB 3.0. Also, @George King ported the Windows 8 drivers to Windows XP for AHCI and USB 3.0 in the XP2ESD pack, would they work on 2000? And how would I get ACPI working on 2000?

I tried another Windows 2000 ISO which had SATA drivers integrated into it. I installed with WinNTSetup and got past "Setup is starting Windows 2000" when pressing F7, but keyboard didn't work at all. I get the following error: "The following value in the -SIF file used by Setup corrupted or missing: Value 1 on line 0 in section [Keyboard] Setup cannot continue. To quit Setup. press F3." I can't turn on legacy keyboard emulation because my BIOS doesn't give an option for that and the laptop is too new. How do I get around this?

The only way which worked with me is to create hfslip iso of blackwingcat : http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1823238.html Disable the UAC if you use win vista and later in procedure of creation.

R1600 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Almost every drivers in XP2ESD package are based on NTOSKRNL_EMU project. Sadly, it doesn't support Windows 2000. You can find some modded drivers (Intel AHCI, acpi.sys, USB 3.0, etc) in @blackwingcat's blog and his update center. http://win2k.org 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Only throwing things on the wall and see if anything sticks but for what it costs I would try both: [Keyboard] kbdhid = "USB Keyboard",files.kbdhid,kbdhid USB = "USB Keyboard",files.kbdhid,kbdhid and: [Keyboard] STANDARD = "USB Keyboard",files.kbdhid,kbdhid kbdhid = "USB Keyboard",files.kbdhid,kbdhid USB = "USB Keyboard",files.kbdhid,kbdhid and see what happens, though I remember seeing a lot of people having issues with attempts to install 2K with only USB mouse and keyboard on more modern hardware. I don't think a "working for all" solution exists, maybe - if you *somehow* manage to workaround the error - some "fully unattended setup" you may get past the text mode and hve later in the GUI a fully working keyboard, but cannot really say. Search on the board for related posts by bluebolt and tomasz86, they did a lot of work attempting to workaround similar USB keyboard issues, maybe some of those posts can provide some inspiration. jaclaz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one gave me 0x01E, the second one gave me 0x07B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
