    You'll have to tell us what you've tried already - are you attempting to use a genuine W2k cd with a COA - make and model of the laptop etc, any displayed error messages....

    Please read the "Please read this first" post which appears at the start of every forum.

      Its possible but I would just do a clean install of 2K.
