Actually the Win2k drivers are not avaliable for the public on NVidia's site. The drivers are avaliable from other sites though.
 
F.e. check the http://www.mswin2k.net and go to the drivers section. If you use the TNT2 drivers included in RC1, you should only have to download the OpenGL fix, which is on the same site. Otherwise download the above mentioned file.
