Does 2000 have compatibility settings like XP? If you right click on an executable and go to "Properties", then click the "Compatibility" tab, there are a bunch of options there for running older games. Set it to Win95 compatibility, and then maybe the color/resolution settings, depending on the game. I know on a few computers, Monkey Island 3 will have skipping sound without Win95 compatibility on, and Torin's Passage and Space Quest 6 wouldn't run for me without it. It doesn't work for DOS games (sound is still really bad), but if they worked in Win95, there's a chance you could fix them up with those compatibility settings.
