How to enable servers becoming browser servers

To encourage singlehomed computers to become the browser servers, open
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters\IsDomainMaster
and change the value of this key to yes, quit Registry Editor, and then
restart your computer. NOTE: The registry settings in this article do not
work on a Windows 2000 DC if it is the PDC emulator.

The windows 2000 domain controller with the PDC role should win an election and become the Domain master browser.
