Hi.

It could be that your boot.ini is missing or corrupt. Make sure it
shows the OS installation as Windows 2000 Professional and not XP or
something else. If it is missing, try to copy or create a new boot.ini
for windows 2000. Feel free to email me if you need to know how to do
these steps. Good luck!
