Windows 2000/NT
What Hardware is needed to run windows
2000?
32-bit, Intel-based microprocessor computer (such as Pentium-compatible
166 MHz or higher) for both Windows NT Workstation and Windows
NT Server.
VGA or higher resolution monitor
Keyboard
32 MB of RAM minimum (Windows NT Server: 64 MB of RAM)
Hard disk space with a minimum of 300 MB of free disk space
for Windows NT Workstation. (Server: a minimum of 400MB of
free disk space on the partition that will contain the Windows
NT system files). Several factors affect free disk space required
by Windows NT 5.0 Setup, including disk cluster size, amount
of RAM in the system, and the file system used (For example,
NTFS uses a smaller disk cluster size than FAT file systems)
and network compared to local installations (which requires
less free space). Setup determines if you have sufficient
disk space to successfully complete the installation with
the optional components you have selected.
For CD-only installation, a bootable CD-ROM drive (so you
can start Setup without using a floppy disk drive)
For floppy disk and CD installation, a high-density 3.5-inch
disk drive as drive A and a CD-ROM drive
For network installation, one or more network adapters installed
on your computer and access to the network share containing
the Setup files.
A mouse or other pointing device
