    If you are already using SQL Server 2000, it is most likely setup using the default instance. If you would like to create a new instance, install SQL Server again and choose to create a new instance. You will have to give the instance a name if it is not the default instance. What is it you are trying to accomplish? A new instance might not be necessary. A single instance can handle many different databases within it.
