Converter 4.0.x should support Windows 2000.

Thank you for your answer,

from this link http://www.vmware.com/support/converter/doc/releasenotes_conv40.html

i see that Converter 4.0 support windows 2000 sp4, i don't see windows 2000 server

Converter 3  has that platfom: http://www.vmware.com/support/converter/doc/releasenotes_conv302.html#guestos

is wrong?

In this context "Windows 2000" means both Workstation and Server. We have done this (with a Windows 2000 Server) just a few days ago with Converter 4.0.1.
