On installation time - definitely yes. If you add second proc under alredy installed - check http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q234/5/58.asp?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0

Yes it will.
Here are the current specs.

Windows 2000 Pro: two symmetric multiprocessors

Windows 2000 Server and Advanced:Support for the latest advanced 8-way symmetric multiprocessors

Windows 2000 Datacenter: Support for the latest advanced 32-way symmetric multiprocessors

Hope this helps,

I agree with the answers above however, you should reinstall the service pack if you upgrade procs or add more procs. Just to play it safe.
