All but one of the pcs using Windows 2000 can be seen on the network using
xp, only one cannot. All of the pcs are in the same workgroup. There are two
other pcs using 2000, and I can see their printers and hard drives. But for
the one that isn't available, I can't even see her printer or hard drive. I
recently changed out the router for this network, and when I tried to create
a network setup disk it would not work on the pc using 2000?

Is NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled on this client? Sharing set up?

You don't need a network setup disk. Just change the default gateway IP in
the W2k PC, presuming that's all you need.
