No way! The correct program is apcompat.exe, so you can tell it it's running
under Win95, but it will crach, as it uses dll-calls Windows2000 does not
support.
The real problem is the Video-Player as far as I know. There is a special
german version, that has no Intro, because of the symbols used there. It
used to crash anyway, because of the IPX-Stack initialization, but newer
patches solved that problem. So RA95.EXE german used to run under NT4, it
should under Win2K.

Andre
