The upgrade path that you have taken was the wrong one. Windows 2000 Pro must be
upgraded using Windows XP Pro. See this link for more details:

I'm not aware of any utility that will run your apps as they are now configured.
Your best bet would be to try to re-install them. If this does not prove to be
successful, your only option would be to backup all of your data to another
resource and then do a clean installation of the OS and then install all of your
apps again.
Good luck!

Hi Folks,
I upgraded recently from Win 2K to Windows XP Home Edition. I then upgraded
to XP SP2. I had lot of Apps installed on Win 2K. Now when I try to run these
Apps in XP, they don't work. When I reboot my machine and start Win 2K, can't
do that anymore. Is there any kind of utility or setup that will allow me to
run all my pre-existing Apps on Win 2K in Win XP? or Do i need to re-install
them?
Thanks in Advance,
Anil
