Yes you can upgrade it as long as you have the minimum requirements for 2000. If you have the actual 2000 install disk and not an upgrade, I would recommend a fresh install. With upgrades you tend to bring any problems you have with it. Just my 2 cents.

yes, its very easy, just insert your windows 2000 cd in ur cdrom and follow the instructions, windows 2000 install wizard will give u the option of upgrading or fresh install, select upgrading, the install wizard will alert u if u don't have enough resources (ie disk space, memory or processing speed, but i am sure u do...n/b windows 2000 is a very tight prog, with ur level of expertisei won't recommend it if u are a working in a network environment, u may need to contact ur system administrator... good luck

Yup. Just buy a windows 2000 upgrade on ebay or craigslist and you are set, as long as you have enough power. System requirements would be at www.microsoft.com/windows.

save all your stuff (pic's, doc's, etc.) to a cd/dvd first. if you have the install disk (with the product key) it should go rite over the old sys.
