Have no administrative tools (win2k)
Hi, When I open the Start=>Settings=>Control Panel=>Administrative Tools on my pc, I find an empty directory. How can I add these tools to my repertoire? Ran.

No real reason to think this would work, other than the fact that sometimes Windows likes to be told twice. Did you check Taskbar and Start Menu Properties for the Display Administrative Tools item? If it's already, checked, try unchecking it, the toggling it on again.
Also, I'm just mentioning this because I'm not sure what your level of familiarity with W2K is, the tools are available through the Control Panel's Administrative Tools applet.

When you right click on MY Computer, do you have an option for Manage? If so, access the Computer Management Console from there and see if going at it that way works. Alternately, do a repair install of Windows 2000 and see if that fixes it. You might want to log on as Administrator (even though you might have an Administrator privileges) and see if you can get at them there. Did you by any chance disable any services to tweak Windows 2000?

you can always type mmc at run console and add snapins to create a custom mmc console equivelant to admin tools
Thank you all for your suggestion. I managed to regain my administrative tools.
