Original Title: CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH A COPY OR A PLACE WHERE I CAN DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 2000 PROFESSIONAL

1.Can someone please help me with a copy or place where I can download 'Windows 2000 Professional.

2.My PC came out with the program installed and later on Windows XP Professional SP3 was installed and the two systems functioned very well and without any problems.

Windows 2000 Server Advanced Server ISO Free Download New Setup for Windows. Its full offline installer standalone setup of Windows 2000 Server Advanced. Windows 2000 Server- Advanced Server is a networking version of the classic Windows 2000. Windows 2000 was developed by Microsoft in 1999.

3.Not long ago Windows 2000 Professional could not start because the file “WINNTSystem32CONFIGSystemced” was missing or corrupt.

4.The two CD s that came out with the PC are missing and I have search everywhere, turning my storeroom upside down and inside out, but I cannot find them.

5.I still have the Product Key Number (hoping it will work with the copy) and it is still clearly visible on the Sticker/ Label or rather the “Certificate Of Authenticity” as this was a true copy of Microsoft product.

6.So please good people help me to re-install this program on my PC so as to let my PC (MY OLD FRIEND) retire with both systems running when Microsoft support come to an end for Windows XP by next year.

7.I am also a retired person desperate to have this program re-install on my PC and your help will mean a lot to me.
