@shuro it seems, support of this laptop was added after win2k release. Anyway, usually we not expect hardware to work out pf box on windows (at least before win10 which downloads drivers automaticly). Without downloading drivers it requires windows version released at least after hardware was made
@mittorn In my experience XP had larger set of drivers for older hardware as well. Or maybe it was better at detecting devices. Anyway it was just easier to put it on even older laptops where it was a bit slow but everything worked out of the box.
@shuro I XP have better hardware support because it targets workstation and home systems, while 2000 mostly targets servera. And it was released 2-3 years later

@mittorn 2000 was workstation system.
By the way Server 2000 was pretty nice too. I think it was the first Windows server OS I worked with.
