You can create new Windows 2000 boot disks from the Windows 2000 CD. Click Start, Run, and type:

x:\bootdisk\makeboot x:

x's are your cdrom and floppy drives.

take care.

Read the Windows2000 help file.

To create boot disks,

From the Windows 2000 help file.............



<< To create setup disks

Insert a blank, formatted, 3.5-inch, 1.44-MB disk into the floppy disk drive.
Insert the Windows 2000 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type d:\bootdisk\makeboot a: (where d: is the drive letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive), and then click OK.
Follow the screen prompts.
Important

You will need four blank, formatted, 3.5-inch, 1.44-MB floppy disks. Label them Setup Disk One, Setup Disk Two, Setup Disk Three, and Setup Disk Four.
Note

You can create the setup disks from a computer running any version of Windows or MS-DOS. >>



Good Luck 🙂
