Most likely your Win2K machine is Blue screening and set to reboot when that
happens.  You can see what the Blue screen is by right-clicking "My
Computer", Properties, the "Advanced tab" and then "Startup and Recovery".

It might also be beneficial for you to let us know what hardware you are
running on, because I believe there are some issues with certain video
drivers and VNC.

If it makes you feel any better, I have a Win2K Pro machine that using the
TightVNC variant makes it Bluescreen similar to what you are explaining.
Using the RealVNC server on the other hand works fine.  Maybe you should try
TightVNC and see if that makes a difference?
