hehe, thats what i thought, but my win2k won't boot from CD. is there such a thing as a win2k that does not support boot from CD? i have tried my win2k on a few different computers and they all don't work.

Real W2K disks are bootable. If your "friend" didn't give you the original disk or make a CD-to-CD copy, he probably just copied the file system onto the disk which will not be bootable.
