Me too.
Though in my case I missed one solder joint on one of the slots so it didn't work properly most of the time till I looked more closely and saw why. When you're dealing with that many pins you have to look carefully!

It's a simple job, but you need to be patient. Best bet is to remove the ISA slots completely from your 2000, and put in some complete 16-bit ISA slots from any old 286/386/486 motherboard.
