I had to do this to get my Win2k back after installing FreeBSD. Boot from the Win2k
installation CD. When you get the option of enter to install, there is an option
R to repair. Choose it. It will get you to a command prompt after logging in as the
local administator. Issue 'help' at the prompt to make sure I am giving you the right
command, but I think the command is 'fixmbr'.
