Yeah that is an idea, or I could spin up a Windows 2000 Server and give
it a whirl, and see if that works. Rather than taking a product system
off the net or causing other issues with the P2V accordingly.

I've never tried, but I dare say you could do quickly P2V the W2K
machine and test it out

I have an analyst that needs to get some new printers built on their
application/print server and HP's site only has print drivers for the
Windows 2003, XP and Windows 7/2008 systems but nothing for a Windows
2000 system, and I am a little leery of putting Windows 2003 based
drivers on this old Windows 2000 SP4 system and blowing it up, and
having to restore from tape backup accordingly. 

 

Any ideas, I rather not blow up a server to satisfy this persons
curiosity...
