If you download it, the pirated copies usually come with all sorts of spyware.  People can actually use your computer as a server for their porn site and you would never have any idea.  The best way is to buy the student/teacher edition.  It's a little over a hundred bucks and you can get it at most retailers as long as you have a student ID (or a friend with one).

There is no more virtual machine in windows XP and windows 2000\nI think this option was available in windows 9x products.\n\nWindows XP and 2000 are fully 32bit operating systems.

How can I retrieve my Windows 2000/XP/2003 or Office 2000/XP CD Key?\n\nSometimes you might need to retrieve the CD Key used to install Windows in order to find out if it's legally purchased, or just for safe keeping. I usually find myself in that position whenever I'm at a client's location, trying to see if the copy of Windows 2000 he's using is indeed legally registered.\n\nLuckily for us, some programs exist that can help you do just that - retrieve license information from the registry, and allow you to copy it for safekeeping or for documentation purposes.\n\nMagical Jelly Bean Keyfinder\n\nThis is a small freeware utility that retrieves your Product Key (cd key) used to install windows from your registry. It has the options to copy the key to clipboard, save it to a text file, or print it for safekeeping. It works on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Office 97, and Office XP.\n\nThis version (v1.41) is a quick update to make it work with Windows Server 2003.\n\nYou can download it from \n\nhttp://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml\n\nNote: This tool does not seem to be able retrieve the Office 2003 CD Key. However, a new version of this tool - v1.5B3 - does have the capability of seeing the Office 2003 CD Key, and also enables you to directly change the existing CD Key to another one.\n\nYou can download v1.5B3 from http://www.magicaljellybean.com/beta/kf15b3.zip\n\nNote that this tool is NOT a cracking tool, and it does NOT generate a serial for you. All it does is to extract your existing CD Key.\n\nCD Key Reader\n\nCD Key Reader is another small tool that can find and display registration information for Microsoft tools and software that is installed on your computer (i.e. Windows, Office and so on).\n\nYou can download it from\n\nhttp://www.skaro.net/cd-keyreader\n\nBTW, there are quite a few other tools that do the same trick. If you know of a good one please let me know.

That's Fine Choice... win 2000 will run comfortabally..... and why do you use Windows 2000 i know it's easy handling servers Since Microsoft has already released windows 2003 Server which is quite similar to windows Xp with windows 2000 Features and many more!

I am assuming that you are saying you lost your windows operating system and CD. If so, you can buy a new version at  the store, which would cost you about eighty dollars. You could also download it if you want to off of the internet either for a fee or for a cost. Downloading it for free is illegal though.

it can be done ...... but i am not going to incriminate myself online. if you look hard enough on "certain sites" you will get there. but i suggest you go genuine, that is something you shold have. a genuine operating system. or swap to win 2000 as it doesn;t need registering and is pretty much like xp but without all the fancy menus and stuff.. it's up to you. i have 2000 on my laptop and i also have genuine xp on my other two desktop pc's

Though I do not know why you would want to, you can do that, but you can only use one of those operating systems at a time.  I would not bother though seeing as XP realistically is a much better OS (especially with SP2) and will do everything that 2000 will.  It is up to you, but realize, the OS that is on your default boot drive will be the one that loads up.  So if you set the default boot drive to C: then XP will load.  There are a couple ways around it, but you can still only run one at a time.  Besides, those two would likely conflict with one another anyway.
