I have a copy of sql 2005 and am wondering if I can load the client tools to
manage my sql server 2000 machines? If so, are there any thing I need to
watch out for? I don't want to break my test or production servers.

Thanks

There are no problems in managing a SQL2000 instance with SQL Server
Management Studio. If you use DTS packages though, you can't edit them
in SQL Server Management Studio but I think that's one of the only
limitations I can think of.

of install options. Are you aware of a web page that provides details on
what to select and not select?

You can manage your 2000 servers using Management Studio, and you CAN
edit legacy DTS packages if you download the optional DTS designer for
Management Studio:
