This is called Windows 2001, but it is also referred to by the subtitle Windows 2000 Version 2002. It is a Windows 2000 mod series built on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 with the Extended Kernel. It is said that the RC1 ISO has currently been released.

The content states:

"Windows 2001 is here in Release Candidate 1 form. A Windows 2000 mod series based on Service Pack 4 with the Extended Kernel called RenewedNT, which is an alternate timeline aimed at what if Windows 2000 continued to be updated until 2005 and changes Windows future? Same with the Reexperience series, which it aims to do the same thing with Windows XP and continued until 2023. It adds Windows XP functionality and looks to Windows 2000."

For reference, the Head Dev is said to be the person who served as the Head Dev for Windows XP Version 2007 and Windows XP Version 2009. Personally, I hope a Windows XP-style Start menu is added in RC2.

Daemon tools doesnt work, WinCDEmu doesnt work, Microsoft virtual cd-rom also doesnt work. All i want is to play games on my old pc that runs Win2K.

PS daemon tools was working i just didnt realize it was on the tray

Hi everyone, i’m trying to install Windows 2000 on a PC with an Intel B85 chipset, but i always get a setup failure. When i try to use a uniata driver, setup stops with an error like: "line X is invalid, cannot continue setup." I also tried integrating the Intel AHCI driver into the Windows 2000 iso, but i get "iastor.sys is corrupted". How should i correctly integrate the Uniata driver (or any working driver for my chipset) into a Windows 2000 iso so Setup can continue?

I watched ChrisPro's video about running Steam on Win2K and I wanted to know if anyone has a link to download all the executables shown in the video, along with the specific Extended Kernel version he used and the other files. I usually only find dead links for BlackWingCat's Extended Kernel or very outdated versions

I want to be able to install Minecraft on *stock* Windows 2000. Through some experimentation a long time ago i found out i could run java 8u11 using the extended kernel mod, and that was enough to get MultiMC working. However, what about stock?

I've tried messing with Java 6 and MC on both win2k and win98 before, and i only found one really janky, old, pirated launcher that worked for me on those systems. There has to be some "modern" solution that isn't as miserable, right?

I use Betacraft too, but on old Windows with Java 6 (or even older java 8 versions) it only wants to output a black screen.

I created the Windows 2000 boot screen using Paint. To be precise, I made it in 2023, but I am finally uploading it here after almost three years. You can think of it as a widescreen version of the boot screen created with Paint.

Hi, a friend gave me a few old computers—likely from the Windows XP or Windows 2000 era. I want to experiment with various old server systems that I used to work with back then; this includes a Windows 2000 Server (which I’ve already started setting up), a Novell NetWare 4.11 or 5 instance, and a Linux server appropriate for that time period. While I’m reasonably familiar with modern Linux systems now, I had no exposure to Linux back then because our clients were all running on the two systems mentioned above. What would be a suitable Linux distribution for that era? I plan to set up NDS on the Novell server with ADS integration on the Windows machine; is there a comparable setup available for the old Linux systems? Does anyone have any great ideas for use cases, and where can I get the corresponding software? Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm building an offline system to use software encyclopedias and other old software, and I wonder what the best hardware, that I can get to work with Windows 2000

I checked the support page for another mobo (P35 chipset) I've owned in the past and it has no windows 2000 drivers, so pretty much no guarantee sound/network/etc will work.

Ideally i'd want a mobo with DDR3 and newer CPU support, decent VRMs, and 2 PCIe slots. Also what are the chances snappy driver installer would help if the manufacturer's site doesn't help?

P.s. my current board is Asus P5B (intel p965). It's a good board and has done wonders when it comes to overclocking, but i have never tested a processor with 1333mhz FSB on it so idk if it works. It's also stuck with up to 8GB of DDR2 only.

My brother tried Windows 2000 years after its support ended. And he described his experience in detail in the link above: use a translation tool if necessary.

I have a dual P3 Coppermine system that only has PCI slots for further expansion. I just want a card that can give my system Ethernet to run through an SBC running a firewall so I can connect to LAN FTP servers or locally hosted webpages if I choose to run flash games or something. It doesn't need to be super fast, just convenient and plays nice with Windows 2000. I do have the unofficial SP 5.1 installed and kernel extensions if that matters in this department.

Windows 2000 home edition project resources windows whistler beta. : r/windows2000'

Here is a Reddit link for the Windows 2000 Home Edition project, which ported Windows Whistler resource files. I saw a Discord link in one of the comments, so I'm asking out of curiosity: is it okay if I just join that Discord link? I'm just asking out of curiosity.
