Is there an easy way to transfer files and settings from win2k to winXP-SP2?
I tried to find an accessory in win2k that was similar to XPs "File and
Settings Transfer Wizard" but didn't have any luck. Even a good tutorial on
the MS KB would suffice.

No, what you did is "multi-post", that isn't the same as "cross-posting".

Windows 2000 doesn't have this, it was only introduced with Windows XP.
The XP FAST can be used to transfer from any Windows system from
Windows 95 onward. Just use the XP cd to launch it on the Windows 2000
installation and follow the instructions. You can also network the
machines or use a cable to transfer the data.
