DO NOT DO WHAT RESPONSE #1 SAYS BECAUSE IT WILL WIPE YOUR BOOT SECTOR! if you had a separate partition for me and 2000 you can delete the windows dir in the me partition
after that while you are in 2000 in folder options select view options to show hidden/system files and look for the file in the root drive named "boot" delete the line that pertains to windows NOT WINDOWS 2000!
you will have to take read attributes off to do this and then put the attributes back on after you are done. save as "boot" and then reboot your machine! it should boot into 2000
