Create a bootable bios flash disk.

Just drag io.sys, command.com and msdos.sys to a floppy, also drag in there the bios file and a bios flasher program...then reboot and follow instructions. Some mobo makers also have a windows based bios flash util for dummies that always works.

I doubt that will work because io.sys and msdos.sys have size 0 under Windows 2000.

Instead, try: http://www.bootdisk.com/
