#Windows 2000 install download no cd#
I can also use the thing on my old sony vaio n505 notebook that has no CD and cannot boot from USB I have a kind of recovery media for later use. Maybe I could even use plop bootmanager? Then put the card as IDE drive into the destination PC, boot XP and install win2000 from second to first partition (setup.exe). Today my occupation will be to try to make two partitions on a CF card, install a Bart PE XP on the second partition. I know now a lot about winsetupfromusb, unetbootin, the HP USB tool, nlite.Įven installations from DOS did not work because for some odd reason the USB key is always recognised as C:, and obviously installation via winnt.exe only can be done on drive C: I won't tell all the funny things, software and options I tried, but by now I am kind of fed up with everything. Then I bought a HP DC7100sff and that worked as it was supposed to from the first second.
#Windows 2000 install download update#
This is partly the fault of Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo E5600 computer that let me not install or use anything with a drive letter above D: due to a crippled BIOS with no update available (the German "Arbeitsamt" released I guess about 170.000 of these with "special BIOS" into the wild buy one only if you never want to change configuration). Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Express Install for End Users v.SP4express Download Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4) to obtain updates that can help improve security, application compatibility, operating system reliability, and Setup. Didn't finish installation though.ġ0 days later I have not finally come to success. That has brought me farthest: I was able to start a DOS installation with WINNT.exe. Tried everything else the net has to offer, even unetbootin. This download installs Microsoft Windows Script containing Visual Basic Script Edition (VBScript.) Version 5.7, JScript Version 5.7, Windows Script Components, Windows Script Host 5.7, and. I assume that I have to select something other than "XP bootable", right? When I select my win2000 source, it is displayed correctly "Windows will be installed in \WINNT" but the suggestion ist still "boot as HDD and XP bootable". When I ignore this, the next error will be “Line -1: Error: subscript used with non-Array variable”. Of course not, I want to install win2000!!!
The first error message I usually get "Your source doesn't appear to be XP.". Stick formatted NTFS, fixed disk and "XP bootable (ntldr)" as suggested by winsetupfromusb. The most common error messages amongst others are: To create the usb boot stick I use a PC with XP installed, tried different sticks and card readers (most of them are actually bootable :-) ). I want to install win2000 from usb (pls, no comments on win2000 in general.
