Windows Embedded 2000 for Game Consoles

Windows Embedded 2000 for Game Consoles was a version of Windows 2000 that didn't even have a normal Windows Explorer window...It was made for the Xbox Classic, which was released the same year as Windows Embedded 2000 for Game Consoles...

Start of Development (1997)
In early 1997, the PlayStation and Nintendo 64 were dominating the market...meanwhile the main way to play console games with Microsoft's software was with illegal emulators (or some legal ones in 1998 such as Connectix and bleem!) Theories started going around that Microsoft would make a Game console codenamed "Scorpion" (The name for Xbox Scorpio was inspired by this) The OS was also to be codenamed Scorpion...and that it would be a 32-bit console...Build 997 was the first build complied on March 25, 1997...and was heavily based off of Windows NT Server Beta 3 Build 5.0.997 (otherwards known as Windows 2000 Beta 3 Build 5.0.997), Build 1014 was complied on April 3 and was modified to where you can only run it on the "Scorpion Test Kit" here is a complete list of bulids complied between in 1997.
