Lots of questions about 2k =(. Trying to get used to 2k hehe.


Anyways how do i get into the System Configuration Utility? In 98 se it was in the System information (Start>programs>Accessories>system Tools>system info)

Thank you ~

It doesn't exist in 2K.

Search the forums for msconfig, it's been posted many times that the XP version will work in 2K, and links to the download have been provided.

And for those who do not know this:

Win2k does not have MSCONFIG. Using the 98 version of MSCONFIG in 2k will generate errors (can still be used after cancelling th error messages). But the XP version of MSCONFIG will work error free in win2k. Grab it here:

and unzip it to Drive:\WINNT\System32 folder

No problem, you're welcome.

I knew I saw it posted by TonyT yesterday, just had to shake the cobwebs to remember what thread it was in.

I'm not a grand dad yet Tony, are you?

And the cobwebs aren't my main problem anyway. Sleep is.
Can't get a good sleep no matter what I try, even tried staying up all night and wait for the next night, no luck.
