Some laptops don't load the rom as a default item. Open your BIOS and set the boot order i.e. CDROM;C:,A: if you have a A: drive installled, once you have the boot order set,put your win2k cd in the rom and Save And Exit the BIOS setup, at reboot, if you did it right win2k will start to load up the setup menu.
