Collation Confusion

Greetings!
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2000 (Standard edition) on a new server to
mirror the version on an older server. The trouble I'm having is with
identifying the settings I need in order to match collations.
The instance of SQL Server on the old server has a collation described as
'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS'. I realise that 'CI' and 'AS' refer to
case-insensitive and accent-sensitive respectively, but what does 'CP1'
relate to?
I've searched through various resources but they all seem to avoid
describing that one crucial bit of information! Can anyone help?Code page 1

with 1252 character set" in the collation selection dialog. This is the
default collation for U.S. English SQL Servers.
