A screenshot of the MadOnion.com System Info window shows system specs for a Compaq PC running Windows 2000. The CPU is an Intel Pentium III at 797 MHz (800 MHz), with an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500, 512MB of RAM, and motherboard model 0688h by Compaq. The tool version is 2.2.
A screenshot of the PCMark2002 Free results screen shows a benchmark with an Intel Pentium III at 800MHz. The scores are: CPU – 2168, Memory – 1481, and HDD – 996.
A second MadOnion.com System Info window shows the upgraded specs. The CPU is now an Intel Pentium III at 997 MHz (1 GHz), still paired with the GeForce FX 5500 and 512MB RAM. Free physical memory is listed as 386.52 MB. Motherboard info remains unchanged.
Another PCMark2002 Free results screen, now reflecting the upgraded CPU. The scores are improved: CPU – 2626, Memory – 1558, and HDD – 1000, indicating better performance from the 1GHz Pentium III.
That #compaqdeskproen #compaqdeskpro I showed? Got a CPU upgrade! Going from an 800MHz #pentium3 #p3 #pentiumiii to a 1GHz version got a 452 point (21%) increase in PCMark 2002! #compaq #pentium #piii #vintagepc #retropc #oldpc #oldcomputer #retrocomputer #windows2000 #2000snostalgia #coppermine

A beige IBM CRT monitor sits atop a Compaq Deskpro EN desktop computer, both part of a retro computing setup. The screen displays the early boot screen of Windows 2000 Professional, showing the “Starting Windows…” text with a horizontal progress bar made of small blue rectangles. Below it reads: “For troubleshooting and advanced startup options for Windows 2000, press F8.” To the left are a few jewel cases for CDs, and to the right is a Logitech speaker and a Mac mini is just barely visible. The background features pink fiberglass insulation and a curtain.
The same IBM CRT monitor and Compaq Deskpro EN are now shown further along in the boot process. The screen displays the Windows 2000 Professional splash screen, featuring the Windows flag logo and the text “Built on NT Technology.” A loading bar near the bottom reads “Starting up…” with a copyright notice below: “Copyright © 1985–1999 Microsoft Corporation.” The glow from the CRT adds a soft light to the otherwise dim workspace. The rest of the setup remains unchanged, including the CD cases, speakers, and nearby Mac mini.
Oh, I forgot to show you some super nostalgic images of #windows2000 booting up! Yes, takes me right back! (and, between you and me? This computer's host name is Alpaca.)

A vintage PC setup shows a Compaq Deskpro EN desktop computer placed beneath an IBM CRT monitor, which is currently displaying the Windows 2000 Professional Setup screen. The setup is in the process of formatting a partition labeled C: New (Unformatted) with a size of 57,239MB, and the progress bar indicates it’s 51% complete. The familiar blue setup screen states: “Please wait while Setup formats the partition…” In front of the computer is a classic Dell QuietKey keyboard with gray and white keys, along with a generic beige two-button mouse resting on a black mousepad. A pair of Logitech desktop speakers is visible behind the keyboard on the right, next to a powered-off Lenovo ThinkVision monitor and another keyboard. The scene is set against a backdrop of unfinished walls with visible pink insulation, and the workspace has a cozy, retro-tech atmosphere. The CRT’s glow adds a nostalgic touch, capturing a moment familiar to anyone who installed Windows operating systems in the late 1990s or early 2000s.
Yep, I’ve got one of these too! It’s been a bit of a guinea pig for me, and has a dedicated video card in it (because I could). #compaq #compaqdeskpro #retrocomputing #vintagecomputer #retrocomputer #oldcomputer #windows2000 #crt #90snostalgia #2000snostalgia #bluescreen #deskpro #compaqdeskproen

Another random #QEMU tip:
#Windows2000 works pretty well under modern versions of QEMU, though not quite as well as WinXP. Try this:
* Video: vmvga or vmware-svga
* Audio: ac97
* Net: rtl8139
Install the video driver from an old VMWare Guest Utilities CD. One from the 3.x or 4.x series should […]

Windows 2000 setup showing the boot drive as C, Windows 98 as E, and the new drive as H
The Windows 2000 “getting started” guide book held up in front of the Windows 2000 drive formatting screen.
Windows drive lettering is dumb. It randomly mingled the CD and/or Zip drives in amongst hard drive partitions? K?
And now for some light reading while formatting a 60GB partition 🥱
