You will need the Windows 2000 CD and the 4 installation diskettes.

But here is a better idea, go to this link...

It will give a full step-by-step of the Win2000 install process with pictures too!

Try this single Install disk for all windows operating systems except NT. It's called "EZ Install Boot Disk" from:

Install floppy, your CD, answer four questions and walk away. It will finish installation upto a desktop.

Set your BIOS to boot from CD.
That's all you need to do.
