As you all know, July 13, 2010 was the last day of support for Windows 2K and Windows XP SP2 (SP3 is still supported until April 8, 2014, which is just simply WTF).

OK. it’s a bit of an overstatement to say that you will still get updates with Windows 2000 Professional today, since it’s gone out of support.

Essentially, what I mean is that if you’re installing Windows 2K, you can still update it to its latest iteration. Now of course, don’t forget new security issues will never be fixed by Microsoft, so once you’ve updated to all the latest, that’s the last you’ll ever hear of Windows Update on Win 2K.

Enjoy your lasting past.

Moving to Windows 7 and sad to see your good old sounds go? Simply search for Change system sounds in the Control Panel and change them with these, the original Win 2K sounds, courtesy of myself: Win2Ksounds
