Acriku Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Probably suggest 2000 due to there being less requirements to run. Also look at how big the harddrive may be, as my previous machine was my first one ever and its hdd was ~10 gigs. Not good for XP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 XP without question.During installation the Windows XP Installer checks your system hardware and adjust the installation accordingly to it. Windows 2000 (although almost the sameas XP) ust installs everything without checking the computer hardware.XP will boot ok, although be warned that ones you have the desktop it still needs to load half the services which make the desktop slow the first minute or so.

veK Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 remove all the crap from xp with nlite and install the new iso then. shouldn't be a problem then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I'd recommend XP. Software and such will work better with XP than 2000.There's not much difference between 2000 and xp (hardware requirement wise) that I know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
