Problem:
.NET applications are supported on Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server. How about Windows 2000?
Resolution:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 (the .NET development tool) is only supported in Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 Server. However, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 (the .NET support to execute .NET applications) is supported in Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 and other different Windows versions (see more details from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856EACB-4362-4B0D-8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5&displaylang=en)
