I don't think you had a Windows 2000 problem. More likely it is an ongoing hardware problem. Let's start with some basics.

Free RAM test download from www.memtest86.com

Free hard drive diagnostics from the appropriate hard drive maker's site.

Post back with your results. Is this a genuine Windows XP CD that says Microsoft all over it?

Not if there's nothing wrong with the one you have. Let's see where the problem is first. ;)

It's a small dowload that will let you create a bootable floppy or CD. You just boot with the disk in there and it will start the test. Let it run for at least 30 minutes.

The ideal way to test is one stick of RAM at a time then all together.

Good luck. We don't help with bootleg software however.
