I really like the Windows Classic Detail view in Windows Explorer, but have been unable to make that a default setting in W2000. Is that possible?

Hi

Goto My Computer and select Tools Folder options. Select the Windows classic from here and then click on the view tab and setall folders like currect view. This will then display all your explorer Windows the same as you have selected.
