Windows 2000 no longer supported ?

Hi,
I would like to report an incompatibility issue.
In order to use some older tools, I wanted to make a VmWare image of Windows 2000. It needed a Java runtime. The java.com website suggested version 6.24, and listed Windows 2000 as one of the targets. This version does not install, however. It complains about a missing DLL, and even when you supply that DLL, it stops completely a little later.
I next downloaded an older version, version 6, and it worked first time.
I think this should either be fixed, or it should be displayed that Windows 2000 is no longer supported, with the website then suggesting a working version.
Regards, Matt

Okay. But the people you want to reach don't look here. You need to create a bug report in bugs.sun.com and then maybe after a few months someone will take a look at it and think "Windows 2000? Even Microsoft doesn't support that anymore. Won't fix".
The real answer you have already found. If you must use an outdated unsupported OS, you will need to use an outdated version of Java to match it.

WHen will be Essbase 9.3 on WIndows 2003 not longer supported?

When will ask Essbase 9.3 on Windows 2003 Note longer supported?

I would say it's already the case ...
Based on the "Oracle Support Lifetime Policy" the Premier and Extended support for Essbase 9.3 are already over, so now it's in "Sustaining Support": it just means it's not going nowhere else (no patch, no updates, nothing). But it will stay in that status forever .... So as long as you have licenses for your system you can continue to run Essbase 9.3 on your Windows 2003 server.
Would probably be good to get in touch with your Oracle contact person to double check that.

Windows vista no longer supported?

when i try download a trial version of photoshop it says my system is no longer supported i run a windows vista 32 bit. is there no way around this? do i have to get a new computer to be able to use nphotoshop or upgrade my system?

GCordeaux Photoshop CC does not support Windows Vista. You can find the system requirements at System requirements | Photoshop. You may want to look at upgrading to Windows 7 or 8. If you do decide to purchase a new computer then I would recommend one with a 64-bit processor to help ensure you meet future system requirements.

xp sp3 no longer supported need to change antivirus

Hi,
The best "all-around" antivirus is chosen by you. We have no influence on what antivirus you choose as it's based on personal preference but I can give you some samples on what I know. The below are all free by the way.
*Avast (http://www.avast.com/en-us/index)
*AVG (http://free.avg.com/us-en/homepage)
*BitDefender (http://www.bitdefender.com/solutions/free.html)
*Avira (http://www.avira.com/en/avira-free-antivirus)
But in the end, it's up to you.
P.S. This is a Firefox support forum used for technical support on Firefox. This thread is off-topic and doesn't belong here but I see that it's your first question here, I'll let it slide :)
Let me know which antivirus you chose.
Thanks!

Does FF7 support Windows 2000?

Where are the system requirements for FF7? The only ones I found were for FF5.
On my ancient work computer running Win2K, the 'Check for Updates' says it is up to date, even though I am running 6.02. Has Win2K support been dropped? I'm hesitant to run the stand-alone install.

Sorry, someone messed up when they updated that page. The download link does go to Firefox 7.0 regardless of how it is labeled. System Requirements haven't changed since Firefox 4.0 was released, at least as far as Windows PC's go, not sure about the other platforms. Windows 2000 SP4 is supported.
I just found out that the updater has been turned off due to problems with add-on updates waiting to be installed when the Firefox update is installed, and the updated extensions "disappearing" (or seeming to disappear). Installation of a new, different extension or reinstalling the missing extension fixes that problem.
The developers are working on a fix by way of a 7.0.1 release, but it's liable to be a few days before it can be tested and distributed.

Zen Micro with Windows 2000 Not Recogni

Help!! My computer operating Windows 2000 no longer recognizes my Zen Micro. It used to but no longer. I have searched through all the help loading everything under the sun with no success. My Micro is operating with Version ..0 that I understand should and has worked in the past with W2000.
Please help. This is ridiculous - no Zen here.

I finally figured that out. With ME or 2000, I needed to:
) download the version firmware to my memory stick
2) take the player and V firmware to an XP machine
3) have the older firmware flashed into the player
4) reinstall the player on the ME machine
I did all that, had Best Buy do the reflash, and it's working now.
A few more questions:
If I later update the computer to an XP, any problem with reinstalling Version 2 firmware (other than loosing stored data in the player)?
Exactly how many features are not supported by version firmware? I'm aware that it won't support subscription services, e.g., Napster To Go, and audible format. Are there any other missing I should be aware of?
TIA

Install Media for Windows 2000 using MSI

Does Oracle have install media for client installs which uses MSI (Windows 2000 Installation Technology)?
I want to be able to push out installs/upgrades of Oracle client software to Windows 2000 desktops (where some people may or may not have administrative rights on their desktops).

Windows 2000 is not supported, officially reaching the end of it's life in June 2010.
We would recommend that you upgrade to an actively supported version of the Windows operating system.
The minimum system requirements for Flash Player can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/in/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html
As a short-term fix, you may be able to run a version of Flash Player 10.3 from the Archives page, which is currently supported with security updates; however, your operating system remains vulnerable as it is no longer maintained from a security perspective.

Re: IMPORTANT - How to install Windows 2000 on a Satellite L300-16M (PSLB0E) ?

Hello,
I'm an independent developper and absolutely need to install several operating systems on my *Satellite L300-16M (PSLB0E)* : it's very important for me because I've to check working of piece of software under every environment for real (not using solutions like VMware, for example).
Well, so, at this time, I've done an Acronis TrueImage backup of original full HDD, then deleted original WinRE and Data partitions, reduced and moved at beginning of disk the Vista partition... and installed System Commander 8 to prepare my future multi-boot. At this time, all sounds right : Vista works perfectly !
Also, note I've configured SATA in Setup BIOS to be in "Compatibility" mode ; just because I don't need AHCI in my type of use !
Second stage : now, *I have to install Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) FR*. Of course, I'm aware that the blocking point is the SATA/AHCI driver, wich is absent in the Win 2K CD... So, I've just made a new CD integrating these drivers using nLite ; at this time, I've tried using driver from Toshiba's XP Drivers page and Intel site about Intel 82801 HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controlleur (ICH8M).
But it doesn't work completely : the Win 2K install starts... All drivers are well loaded (including the AHCI ones) and just after this loading step, I get a black screen with just a blink cursor at top left of screen... indefinitively :-(
I've also tried to switch SATA to "AHCI" mode in BIOS and it's the same.
So, what to do next ?
Do I've used the wrong AHCI drivers ? Do I need to incorporate the maximum of Toshiba Drivers (about chipset, display, sound) in the Windows 2000 install CD using nLite ? I mean until the CD capacity is not reached.
Is there a way or tutorial to install Windows 2000 somewhere ? For XP, I think it will more easy because SP3 seems to support AHCI, but, just now, my problem is to install Windows 2000 : even if Microsoft wants to leave-it, there are a lot of professionals who still use-it... And my job, as developer, is to do my software works on this OS too ! *I really need to find a way to install it on this computer !!!*
Awaiting your lighted replies and all tips or idea which could help me to achieve the task.
In one word : HELP ! oops !

Thanks xaver, but I've already tried stormng-20070827133046.zip and it remains the same :(
About all driver ? Oh, in fact, I'll try to see if the XP ones work and if not I'll have a not-fully working Win 2K, but it will be enough for me to test my programs... I hope, at least, I'll be able to do display driver work !
Well, seeing I don't succeed using Intel/Toshiba drivers and nLite, I'm trying at this time to go through another way, installing Win2K in a VMware, then forcing install of the Toshiba AHCI driver, then doing a TrueImage of this and restauring in the Toshiba ! I'll see...
However, if someone has an idea, don't hesitate.
EDIT : I'm now at the step to try to force the Store Manager driver from Toshiba (the one given for this model under XP), launching iata_cd.exe and after some second I see a message saying that this OS (Windows 2000) is not supported by this driver... So, from now, I clearly know why this driver failed when I gone through the nLite-customized Win2K CD install directly on the Satellite :-(
So, this change the game : does it exist a Windows 2000 compatible driver for the Satellite L300-16M's AHCI Controller ??? This is the question !
If you have the answer, very thanks to tell me, of course...

Correct ITunes version for Windows 2000 and Nano

My daughter just got a Nano for x-mas and is not recognized by old I-tunes software. I assume I need a newer version. However, 8.x that is advertised as latest version does not mention Windows 2000. I can't find any info on what version of ITunes I need or if there is one even compatible with both 2000 and the Nano. Can anyone tell me? I am incredibly frustrated by the lack of info on this and the lack of info in the user's manual. I see there are several different versions/generations of Nano, but have no idea how I am supposed to know what I have. I am not computer illiterate, but find this site poor at explaining questions like; how to tell what generation of Nano one owns, what version of I Tunes is necessary to synch with that version of Nanao, and is that version of ITunes compatible with ones operating system.
Can someone tell me what version of ITUNES I need (or if it is even possible)and where I can find it? Thank you if anyone can provide this info that Apple chooses not to make easily accessible.

So does this mean the IPOD is useless unless I get a whole new operating system so I can get the latest ITUNES?
I also found a fact sheet about what to do to re-install USB drivers if the IPOD isn't recognized by the computer (which it isn't), followed the instructions and it still is not recognized! Is there a place those drivers can be downloaded so I could try something other than ITUNES for putting music on?
I still contend that MAC does a horrible job of explaining these issues to people when they are buying. I've spent about 4 hours looking at help pages and have yet to see one that mentions minimum system requirements (ie Windows 2000 is not supported) and what, if anything can be done about it. I spent about a half hour trying to locate an e-mail help/customer service address to ask these questions and let them know about my frustration, but all I could find was the phone number, for which I only get one call! I don't have time to spend this much time trying to track this info down. My first computer was a MAC and talked for years about how great they were, but this lack of easy access to basic info/customer service has soured me on them. Sorry about the rant. Thanks for any help. While I am not a computer nerd, I work with them enough to know how to get around.

Windows 2000 Error

Hi all,
I am receiving a error when running a projector on Windows
2000.
"Unable to locate DLL. The dynamic link library gdiplus.dll
could not be found.."
I have authored the project on macintel, and downloaded and
installed the latest mac hot fix for D11.
Is this a problem with authoring on macintel? Is Win2000
supported by D11. I have found docs
in the developer center saying it is and in other areas on
the website the playback requirements do not mention
win2000.
Has anyone else had this problem?

To sum it up..
Director MX04 was built with win9x playback support in mind.
Dir11 was built
for XP+.
Gdi+ is not a part of the standard 2000 installation, but is
probable to
find it on an OS machine - added during the installation of
some app.
So, if you found some docs that include w2k in the playback
compatibility
list, I guess that someone added it there without testing on
a clean 2K
installation. The official site, however, states XP SP2+ /
Vista, as minimum
OS.
http://www.adobe.com/products/director/systemreqs/
Btw, I also find dropping 2k support to be a bad move.
They could do it 'officially', to be on the safe side.
But losing 2k in order to use gdi+? And when already having
the image I/O
code from previous versions?
Necromanthus has good reason to ignore any machine that
doesn't have a
descent 3D card installed.
However, 3D/games is not the only thing that director can be
used for.
And having the companies with the machines you mentioned in
mind, I am
trying to retain 98/NT compatibility on certain apps I'm
building, whenever
possible.

Install windows 2000 using bootcamp 2.0??

is it possible?
i already found out the hard way that you need win xp sp2 or greater to install (i tried win xp without sp2 and it wiped out my hd)

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
Windows 2000 is not supported to be installed on Mac with BootCamp.
Simply said, it is too old and lacks some neede features for a succesfull install.
You can however use your pre-SP2 Xp and this instructions http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxpsp2slipstream.asp to make yourself a XP SP2 install CD.
Or if you really need Windows 200 to run, have a look at the virtualization apps like Parallels, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox.
VirtualBox is the only free app of these, the other two cost some cash.
Hope it helps

P2035 - Windows 2000 - holds in buffer until full page prints

We recently installed the P2035 printers onto computers using Windows 2000. It will print - but it will "hold" the print job until it has a full page to print. It will time out and eventually print (even a section of a page) after about 3 minutes. We want it to print immediately even if it is just a small paragraph, etc. Is there a setting somewhere that I can change so that it doesn't wait to print small print jobs?

Thanks xaver, but I've already tried stormng-20070827133046.zip and it remains the same :(
About all driver ? Oh, in fact, I'll try to see if the XP ones work and if not I'll have a not-fully working Win 2K, but it will be enough for me to test my programs... I hope, at least, I'll be able to do display driver work !
Well, seeing I don't succeed using Intel/Toshiba drivers and nLite, I'm trying at this time to go through another way, installing Win2K in a VMware, then forcing install of the Toshiba AHCI driver, then doing a TrueImage of this and restauring in the Toshiba ! I'll see...

Playing ipod configured with 7.4 from XP platform on Windows 2000 with 7.3

I have a classic 80 configured with itunes v 7.4 from XP machine but want to just play music through office machine equipped with windows 2000. itunes only supports version 7.3 on win 2000. How can I configure my ipod just to play on that version?

+When I check the ipod once completed nothing there. The software version shows as 1.2.2. When I try to upgrade is says it already upgraded. If I try to restore it still stays as 1.2.2. Not sure what the problem is.+
Firmware version 1.2.2 ... sounds like you've got a 5th generation iPod.
If so, try the *Windows 2000* instructions (for reverting back to firmware 1.2.1) given in the following document:
