No. You have to make sure first, that you have enough memory and RAM for Win2000. If not, then you could be headed for big trouble. Be patient and look into it. Read what you need in order to change you system. Otherwise you may have a bigger headache than you imagined. Good luck.

you may bypass the the microsoft website and pay more desirable to be able to apply an same disk and code on yet another computer or computer. and that i might want to examine the computer has the right criteria previously doing something.

Well no. Win2K uses NTFS rather than FAT32. The least you should do is back up your hard drive first. You have heard about back ups, right?
