This is probably easy for most of you, but...

I have just purchased a used copy of Win2000 Server (STANDARD).

After installing Win2000 Server, I started the configuration wizard, and chose the option, this is the first/only domain server, and it was proceeding, and the power cord got yanked. I tried again, and it said that there is more than one server existing....how to fix??

If it's the only server you have and you haven't got AD installed yet, I would reformat the disk and start over.

Does this make sense?
 
not sure if I installed AD or not...have to check later...I'm at a remote location right now...and the server is off, so i cant access it.

You haven't setup AD fully yet. I would reformat and start over. Way to early in a build to have those kind of problems. but that's just me! ;0)
