You're much better off doing a clean install with dual boot.
However many problems a total install may cause,
the upgrade will be messier. Microsoft trademark <grin>
AND you will have a working system while
going through the pains of adjusting to a new OS.
In either event, make sure you're running SP6.
If you have a NTFS volume, win2k will make a
hidden conversion to NTFS5. NT4 does not
like that.
Get Norton Ghost, image out your whole system
to somewhere safe prior to upgrade/install.

Why would you want to use USB? Ethernet is
cheaper and easier to share if you decide
to put multiple boxes on the the DSL line.
