Hi,
I have tried several time (WINNT.EXE, WINNT32.EXE, BOOTUP FROM CDROM ETC) to install WIN2K PROFESSIONAL under WINME in vain. I always receive a message "WIN 2K SETUP COULD NOT DETECT THE VERSIONS OF WINDOWS YOU ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING. SETUP CAN NOT CONTINUE." However, I can install Win2K adv server under ME without any problem. I am wondering if I can use Win2K adv server as a Workstation OS instead of WIN2K Pro. Will the performance of the ADV server be slower than 2K PRO? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
MY SYSTEM:
ABIT KT 7 RAID, TBIRDS 800, 256 MB MUSHKIN HIGH PERF 2, 2X 30 GB IBM GXP75 ATA100, 1X 9GB FIREBALL KA+, INTEL 100PRO+ NIC, 56K DIAMOND SUPRA EXPRESS, SOUNDBLASTER LIVE VALUE, 32MB 3D PROPHET II MX RETAIL.
MAIN APPLICATIONS:
3D MODELING, GRAPHICS AND VIDEO EDITING.
THIS COMPUTER IS SETUP AS A MAIN WORKSTATION WHERE OTHER TWO COMPUTERS (DUAL PII 266 DESKTOP, AND PIII 700 LAPTOP) IS HOOK UP THROUGH A HUB FOR PRINTER AND SCANNER SHARING.
