BackOffice is a stand alone product (domain controller, fax/e-mail services, etc). You can't upgrade to Win2K which don't have the same functions. If replace BackOffice with Win2k you must install/purchase in addition other server products to complete it with the same functions.
To install Win2k you need a fresh install not an upgrade. Remember that all your users/computer accounts depends by the actually server and if you erase it all will be losed.
