Downgrade from Windows XP to Windows 2000 [windows 2000] [windows xp]

admin / June 19th, 2011/ Posted in Operating Systems / No Comments »

Q: Is there anyone who knows how to downgrade from XP to 2000? Because it disables the disk 2000 when I was in.


Re:Dude, with your knowledge, you'll probably be left with a black screen after you're done messing with your machine. You need to do some SERIOUS reading up before you attempt installing another OS.

Re:I think you better say with XP.

Or learn a little bit more about dual booting…

Re:Is the BIOS detecting the CD-ROM?

Re:I went to the BIOS menu at the beginning of the loading process that my comp goes through and went to boot sequence and put the CD ROM first and it still said that the disk was disable.

I just wanted to know if I can switch between the two without problems, nothing serious.


Re:In your BIOS under Boot Devices make sure CDROM is in first place. Then if you have the disc in it will start the install.

And why do you want to go back to 2000 out of curosity since basically is 2000?!

Re:Set the boot order in the bios to CD-Rom as the first boot disk.

Re:I tried that and it said that the boot disk was disable

How do I reinstall?

You boot off the Win2k CD and follow the on-screen instructions.

Make sure you backup anything you need to keep though.


Re:Don't think you can. You'll have to reinstall.
