I am running Win2000 Professional SR 1. I had installed MS Office 2000 Professional, and all apps worked. I just installed MS Project 2000, and now none of the Office 2000 apps work! They start and then disappear! I also installed MS Visio 2000,which also works. I have uninstalled and reinstalled MS Office several times to no avail. All other apps on the PC work, including IE 5.5.

I have also seen this happen when using NFR copies of the Office software suite. If your using an expired copy of Office 2000 or using a copy from the MSDN kit, you can have these same issues. The MSDN, Pre-release and NFR copies have time outs and other limitations in them. If you have access to another retail version of the software, I would suggest that if the above suggestion doesnt work, us them to reinstall. The above fix does work in many cases, but not if your using the items I suggest.You can count many warez versions as well.
