SGI workstation compatability

I have a dual P3 550 SGI 320 workstation running on
Win2000. I want to run Premiere Pro from adobe sys.
Premiere requires winxp. Is there any reason xp might not
work on this workstation?

Hello

Well give it a try or contact the maker of your pc and get
that info from the.

Unlikely, the 320 was a very non-standard machine that required a
specialised HAL and low level drivers to function.

Can I run Windows XP on my SGI320?
The short answer to this question is no. Microsoft dropped support for the
SGI320 workstation for their latest release of Windows (link). Some people
have reported varying degrees of success in getting beta build versions of
XP to run. This almost certainly uses the appropriate HAL.dll from the
Windows 2000 CD to 'patch' the newer, incompatible version. If anyone does
manage to get XP running on his/her SGI320 then please let myself and the
rest of the community know.
