Windows 2000 will work Great on a P3. I have found that it works quite well with 128MB of ram and even better with 256MB. The best way is to do a clean install by zeroing the hard drive with the drive manufactures software. You should have at least a 3GB drive to have a useful machine.I run more than one drive using a master and slave configuration. Be sure that you have all of the drivers for your machine - They are available from the manufacturer of you machines web site.You will need a good unzip program also. This is available from Major Geeks or use FreeZip it works quite well(see sources). After the drive is zeroed boot from the W2K disk and let windows setup format the drive. I always use NTFS as it is far more stable than FAT32. I would also upgrade to I.E.6 with service pack one for more secure Internet use.
Can i install windows 2000 to a pentium 3 machine?microsoft windows xp
Yes.
Can i install windows 2000 to a pentium 3 machine?ie 7 internet explorer
ya you can install 2000 on P3 mac. windows req for win 2kk is only 400\mhz processor and 64mb ram
Yes.... Follow the system requirements on the box. There is a minimum frequency and ram specification. But most PIII's meet and exceed the requirements i'd say 95% of PIII's are compatible.
Minimum Requirements:
Processor
133 MHz or higher Pentium-compatible CPU.
Memory
At least 64 megabytes (MB) of RAM; more memory generally improves responsiveness.
Hard Disk
2 GB with 650 MB free space.
CPU Support Windows 2000 Professional supports single and dual CPU systems.
you can install win 2000 on machine which have
133 Mhz cpu
32 Mb ram
1Gb HDD Space
and so that pentium 3 is much higher then minimum requirements of win 2000 so you surely can install it.
