Genuine Windows 2000 CD's are bootable. Did you go in the BIOS and set the Boot Order so that the CD drive boots before the hard disc? If you cannot boot from the cd then you can try this:

Make sure you have your Windows 2000 product key before you begin, you cannot install Windows without it.

Due to some reasons (God knows what they are), Win2K which was.

in the C:\ drive. I have the Windows 2000 Pro CD with me but when I try
to boot my m/c from the CD-ROM (with the Win2K Pro CD inside), my m/c
doesn't boot from the Win2K CD. I was told by one of my friends that
the reason why the m/c isn't booting from the Win2K CD is because the
Win2K CD is not a bootable CD although he wasn't very sure about it.
Is he correct? If yes, then isn't there any other way by which I can
re-install Win2K Pro in the C:\ drive of my m/c?
Or is there any way by which I can convert the Win2K CD that I have
with me into a bootable CD?
Please help......I desperately need a concrete solution.....
