Did you this first?

  2.4.  Installing windows 2000:

  I had to initialize the first partition before installing windows
  2000. Insert the DOS startup disk and reboot your computer. Once you
  get to the DOS prompt do the followings:

       FDISK /MBR
       SYS C:

  Now you can go ahead and install windows 2000. At some point Windows
  2000 will prompt you for the partition on which you want to install.
  The partition you created with fdisk should show up as damaged or
  unformatted partition. Go ahead and select it.
