Hmm... Could we be looking at an IRQ conflict here to..? I mean, since it wrkin in 98. Or maybe some driver is not 100% Win2k compatible.

Which bus speed are you running? When i switches from 66Mhz -> 83Mhz I experienced the same slow bootup. After disabling dma on my harddisks the bootup times went back to normal again.
