can you dual boot between win2k server and winxp pro?

Yes.  Start with your W2K and then insert your XP installation CD.  When the XP installer starts choose a NEW INSTALLATION instead of upgrade.  Then you'll have the NTLDR boot time menu show up and ask which OS you want to boot.

cool,
Yes, you can but it depends on your configuration of computer.

Is it a brand new computer or has it already some OS there?

You can list our your configuration of computer, the hardisks and/or partitions.

Why does it depend on the configuration of your computer?  As long as there is room for the new OS on an existing partition, it will work.

;o)    Looking forward to hear Cool's information!

Yes Cool you can, but each OS should be on its own partition though.

Go here: http://www.dewassoc.com/kbase/

Select dual and Multi-booting in the menu and on the page itself scroll down to " Dual Booting Windows 2000 and Windows XP"

Maybe but it's certainly not necessary.

Geeez Joe, I would have expected that from nearly anyone else, but not you!

Ok, i went to the page that Dennis posted and it says that you should install the os on seperate partitions.   I'm abit confused.

winxp pro on one partition and win2k server on another partition. Not quite certain why there are any confusion.

Cool, can you elaborate your computer's status?  

Cool,

Above dual boot of Win2Kserver and WinXP is for testing. In such a combination, you will waste the license as WinXP has a strict control on license activation.

I agree "P", Cool, where are you?
