Okay this is probably far too off topic but here’s my question

Are windows 2000 VMs illegal? I got one from winworld.com and it says it’s a build for testing win2000s features? Please help me, I’m not a law nerd. And don’t ask why I need a windows 2000 vm

    @XP i have to use my dark magic to remove the timebomb data, i often have to try 20 or more times until it works as i want it to, or you can just use tweaknt (install it on an iso and load it as a flash drive or something like that, i use vmware which lets me do that stuff)

    @XP sometimes games don't want to work because they think it's windows xp but i end up having to edit their configs to think that my os is windows vista or 7)

    @XP hey, i do this stuff, there is a site called winworldpc.com that has a windows 2000 rom and some beta roms, i got longhorn 4039 from there and it works real well, i've even installed the longhorn 4088 rom from there on my secondary pc (i stabilized it by removing the timebomb and adding features from windows 7 ultimate x64 and longhorn 4039. I forgot the model name of the secondary computer, but i know that these are the stats: 768gb hdd, 24gb ram, i7 processor, nvidia graphics card, and a 1366x768 display). And it works just fine, as a matter of fact that is the computer i use for schoolwork and other stuff and it handles games just fine, it has not crashed even once.
