Windows Powered ?

Recommended Posts


Does anyone know what kind of release "Windows Powered" is?

I found it in english SP4 / USP50 but not in german SP4.

THe CD-ROM tag ist CDROM_IW.5, the SP subfolder is iw.

As far as I know, 'Windows Powered' was the name of a planned version of W2K for mobile devices that was canceled and never released. That was my understanding, at least. So you may have something there worth holding on to :).

If you bought a NAS device from a first-tier vendor such as IBM or Dell, you got a special version of Windows 2000 for storage servers (which shows up as "windows powered" in the boot logos). This is not a canceled version, it was simply only available as a special OS Kit to tier-one OEMs for NAS devices.

It morphed into Windows Server 2003 for storage devices, which also has a funky boot logo scheme, but not quite as different as the one for Windows 2000 storage server.
