The fork steer tube diameters changed in the mid 2000's. A new fork is probably not comparable with the head tube on your old frame. Everything else is probably easily swapped out. In early 2000's handlebar diameters were starting to become larger, not sure if there is a standard now so a stem replacement may be required as well. Cranks will have to be swapped out with bottom brackets as new ones are probably splined and you would have a square taper.
