My games have been running very choppy ever since I have installed win2k pro. I have the ATI Radeon 64mb ddr card, with the latest drivers and service pack 2 for windows. What is the problem?

You might have any number of problems. Which drivers are you using?... I use the 3226's and they run beautifully! I also have a 664 DDR.

When you installed Win2k, did you set it to "Standard PC"? Because if you didn't, your problems could easily be explained by ACPI.

I learned this lesson the hard way myself. People will tell you that 2k ACPI management is great, but how can it be when 5 devices share one IRQ?
