Install Windows 2000 to a different partition than XP is installed in. You now have have W2K's NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM.
You need to repair the Windows XP Boot Loader. Boot into Windows 2000, not Windows XP. Insert the floppy disk that you used earlier (or access the location you used), to restore the XP NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM. Copy them to the root directory of your boot drive.
Now, you'll be able to restart your computer and boot into Win 2K or Win XP.
