'''Windows HQ V2''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows 2000|Windows 2000 SP4]] edition, which was created by mmaciek12. It released in 2011, and was added to the archive on December 7, 2022.
== Changes from Windows 2000 SP4 ==
* The setup OS text is changed
* New seup graphics. The setup background is replaced with the Windows 7 one▼
* New boot graphics. The boot screen is set to a plain black background with white text. Due to a quirk with Windows 2000's ntoskrnl, the loading bar takes part of the text with it.
▲* The setup background is replaced with the Windows 7 one
* 50 new wallpapers included. Some are from XP, while many of them come from Windows Vista and 7, betas included
* New sound scheme. The default ding sound is replaced with Windows 7's one. A few sounds have been replaced with the ding sound.
 
== Notes ==
* A list of unused content as can be seen in this bootleg can be found here:
* Continuing from the tangent of "unused things":
:* There is a customization utility included in the Windows directory, that is supposed to run on startup, but it does not. Not to mention the shortcut link that starts the program is broken in many different ways. The file path goes to <code>WINNT\system32\ViOrb\ViOrb.exe</code>, but ViOrb is actually in the root of <code>WINNTsystem32</code>, not in its own folder in <code>WINNT\system32</code>. And you know what's the best part? Since the author forgot to fix the working path, their '''main computer'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s path is present! From what we can see, we can infer that they used Windows 2000 or XP to make this bootleg.
:* And you know what's the best part? The author forgot to fix the working path, so their '''main computer'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s path is still present! But from what we can see, we can infer that they used Windows XP to make this bootleg.
:* A wallpaper is supposed to be set, but it isn't.
:* There is supposed to be a folder named "TUNING" that gets extracted to the desktop, from which you can access:
::# A batch script that cleans the temp folders and Prefetch,
::# And a folder named "32 bitowe ikony" (32 bit icons), which has Windows 2000 Revolutions Pack 2.0 and Windows Vista toolbar icons, which you are supposed to install manually and apply the included toolbars, to make the OS look like Vista/7.
:* Shell32.dll is supposed to have different icons, but there is a duplicate which is stock, so itthe modified version never gets extracted and the icons will never show up.
 
* None of the installed programs show up properly in Add/Remove Programs. Their names all show in blank.
* Internet Explorer is partially broken, as there are IE 6 updates bundled with the OS, but IE itself is still version 5.0.
