tony1c 0 Posted February 23, 2000 Has anyone installed Win2K on an IBM ThinkPad 600 series? I'll be getting one with Win98 and am wondering if I'm taking too much of a chance by installing Win2K at the outset. Tony Share this post Link to post
Driven 0 Posted February 23, 2000 Hello, use to work for IBM here. I've only installed Win2K betas on some of the 770 series and it installed and ran great. Although some devices did not work (like sound), & IBM obviously did not have drivers out at the time so I lost out. Also there was no 'Thinkpad Features' software for Win2K at that time, it's prob released now though. I did have to do a bios upgrade. If you can, make an image of Win98 before you install Win2K just to be safe. I found Win2K was better suited than Win98 for laptops. Share this post Link to post
