Hello! I have Advanced Server 2003 on my root drive (C:), but I want to install Advanced Server 2000 (for testing purposes) on my secondary Drive (which is formatted with NTFS, 40 GB, seen by AD2003). Of course, when I place the installation CD, I get the message that since it is an older version of Windows, setup will be disabled.
What is the easiest way to do the install (without disconnecting the root drive)?
Thanks in advance!
Tim
 
you should install w2k first and then 2003. Alternatively you may buy Virtual PC that let you switch between two or more OS without rebooting.

Thanks, that's what I thought.
Have a good day!
