I made a try with the proposed solution but it did not worked. So sadly,
now Windows 2000 is unsupported.

I just changed the configuration on sourceforge to let anybody access
all the old files. I suggest you to try to find there an old version of
GCompris that works on Windows 2000. If you find it, feel free to share
it on the list:
