Try the site above for creating an emergency repair disk. YOu can also use ontrack, (linked below) to keep your system in order.

ANother emergency repair disk site linked below:

Also make sure you have all the latest updates and service packs installed on your windows 2000 installation. Microsoft does a decent job in releasing updates, but I would make sure you have everything updated just to make sure you system is running smoothly.

IF YOU NEED TO BACK UP YOUR REGISTRY IN WINDOWS 2000 try the site below:

For future reference, if you ever go to XP, the below will help:

try those sites for the automated system recovery and system restore functions. I have used both and they work great. Another thing you can do is use a program that allows you to backup important system files like ontrack systems :
http://www.ontrack.com/easyrecovery/

IT allows you to essentially do the same thing as system restore. Works wonderfully well. YOu might also want to make a boot disk for windows XP if something were to happen to cause your system not to boot, this would let you get into the ASR program (automated system recovery)

that is if your XP cd is not bootable.

I hope that helps.
