Like Kasey said... You're not going to get it working. At least not very well. The hardware support in Windows 2000 is far too old for this newer-ish hardware.

This is unresolvable. Get AT LEAST Windows Server 2008.

Go Linux for best results, honestly. You won't end up in this situation. There will always be free, updated software to use. Server versions of Linux are able to be configured as an Active Directory server, HTTP/FTP, etc.

Windows 2000 is not supported on this machine. The closest you could get is using a hypervisor XenServer or VMWare ESXi and then installing Windows 2000 on a virtual machine.

Dell poweredge t300 server e1410 cpu 1 error

The e1410 is an error that is reporting an interruption to the CPU processes. It isn't identifying an issue with the processor specifically, it is just saying its processes were interrupted. Normally when you see the E1410 you will see another error listed with it in the hardware log. Do you see any other errors in the log? Also, what is the BIOS and Drac versions at currently? I ask because the server being very out of date can cause issues like this as well.
Let me know what you see.

Your corporate Firewall is denying access. I don't know what this site is or does, but you can put in a request to allow access with your IT guy or use it at home.

If your Dell server cam with the Windows Server 2003 software, you should be able to order a replacement cd. Go to http://www.dell.com/support If the software was not packaged with the server, you will have to buy it at http://www.microsoft.com/sales

Nic teaming on poweredge t300

NIC teaming is useless unless you have a switch that support teaming.
However, Dell servers have free lifetime phone support ((800) 945-3355).
They should be able to help.

Dell says I could not load WinXP Pro on Dell T300. Why not?

You won't encounter any problems, but you may need a usb to ethernet adapter to get on the internet to get drivers. Also, many places no longer sell non-OEM copies of windows XP, and, will Dell sell a computer with no OS?
