What happens when you try to boot Server 2000? What error messages are
you getting. Post the contents of the Boot.ini file here so we can have
a look at it.

A good starting point would be to describe exactly what happens when you
attempt a Win2000 Server boot. "It is not booting up" does not really tell
us a great deal.
