One of the biggest problems of Windows 2000 is the compatibility with modern hard- and software. To reduce these problems a new fan project has started which tries to find solutions to the compatibility issues.
The fan project has a series of video presentations which show how to get Windows 2000 up and running on modern devices. The project also writes drivers for modern hardware to fix the most common issues, like the inability to set a high display resolution without a graphics driver for Windows 2000.
But Windows 2000 also offers some advantages compared to newer versions of Windows like Windows xp and later. These advantages include:
- Windows 2000 needs only an anonymous serial number once - there is no registration and no monthly subscription like it is planned for Windows 12
- Windows 2000 does not depend on the internet
- with Windows 2000 the control over the system is in the hand of the user - there is no automatic installation of bloatware and no interface to enforce a social credit system
- Windows 2000 can be modified by the user - there is no need to sign up to buy a digital certificate nor digital signatures to write drivers or other system relevant components
If you are interested in Windows 2000 and this new fan project, then you might want to have a look at these video presentations. The presentations also include links to the self written drivers.
There is an easy accessible Odysee channel which has low quality copies of these presentations in 2 languages. Odysee allows watching and downloading from a rather fast server:

And there is an anonymous FTP-account on a slow server where higher quality versions of the video files and the drivers can be downloaded:
protocol: FTP
host: OnTheServer.de
port: 21
user name: anonymous
password: - nothing or anything -
The project has started recently and it does not fix all and everything that one could wish for. But it might already be helpful for some in here.
If you have any feedback about this project then feel free to comment. Your comments are welcome.
