java.lang.System class is your friend.
using getProperties() returns you the entire properties list.
You want to look for os.name, os.arch and os.version properties to identify
whether you are running on Windows 2000.

Sorry, after re-reading your question, I think I got it wrong. Sorry,

You are not interested in identifying the OS are you?
Sorry -

You will have to go native (JNI) or find some library with JNI that gives
you that functionality - it could even be crossplatform (support for 32-bit
Windows, Linux, Solaris, whatever) with all the neccessary native
libraries.

JNIWrapper may help in accessing OS specific functions in Win32.

Cheers.
