Hi, does anyone know what has replaced msconfig in win2k? I have a number of programs coming on at startup that I'd like to stop but I don't know what win2k uses as msconfig doesn't seem to work. Any ideas would be gratefully accepted!

WIndows 2000 doens't come with msconfig but you can use windows xp's msconfig. Just download msconfig.exe from win xp and copy it to %systemroot\system32

Start> Settings> Control Panel> Administrative Tools> Computer Management... Go down to system information... Software Environment... Startup programs(to see what is starting at boot)... Services to control what is starting at boot. Hope this helps!! Also a good (belive it or not) help file for this menu (press F1).
