I have a very "old" pc with no capability to boot from cdrom drive.
One day, it died. And I need to reinstall the windows 2000.
How can I reinstall the windows 2000 back?
I only have the CD and there is no way to boot it.
I have A: drive and B: drive. (now you know ...) :cry:

You could use other working pc to create the win2000 "bootable" disks (in 3.5" format, usu. 4 disks).
Reboot the pc from A: drive and insert the win2000 CD into cdrom drive.
Repair the win2000 installation or reinstall win2000.
Hope this helps.

maybe buying a new pc or mac.....
or update your bio setting to 'boot from CD' is another way.
cheers,

I agree that if updating the bio setting is a "problem", then you should consider buying a pc and sleep better.
