I have a win2k3 server that i am going to need to upgrade to service
pack 2. It is running sql server 2000(sem reports version 8.0 - i
think that is sql server 2000). It has profiler and query analyzer
running as well. Are there any caveats i need to be concerned about
before installing win2k3 sp2 on a server with sql server 2000. Thanks

I don't know of any problems, but I have not tried myself.

Check SELECT [at] [at] version that the version number is at least 8.00.760,
that is SQL 2000 SP3. (Which is the lowest service pack that is
supported on Windows 2004 any version.)
