Run an X server under W2K, SSH to Linux, startx. Slow sometimes, but
it'll work. Don't reboot; if your BIOS or boot sequence is prone to
printing vital information; you won't see it unless you borrow the W2K
monitor. I hope you have a UPS on that machine.
I have at least one monitor here you can borrow untilo you get a
replacement. One isn't good enough for long-term use, but it's better
than nothing. There may be others, depending on the generosity of their
owners.
