Jombee nailed it. MMC & event viewer are some of the best tools in W2K. Also you can use many great troubleshooting commands from the command prompt which you will learn about.
On a side note, if you want MSCONFIG in Windows 2000, all you need to do is copy it from a Win98/ME machine to the System folder and PRESTO... MSCONFIG in W2K!!! |
