    if i were you then i would have taken the backup first then

    tried

    DBCC CHECKDB (<db>, REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS)

    Note:note sure this will work on 2000 or not?

    Got nothing to do with SQL 2000, those errors are not repairable in any way. CheckDB with a repair option will spend a lot of time trying and will eventually fail with a whole bunch of 'this error can't be repaired' as well as various other messages.
