That's because it's not in Windows 2000. It's in 9x and WinXP.

You can just copy msconfig.exe from a Win98 or WinXP computer to your Win2K install. I never had problems when doing this.

how can you drag it over from win98 when the XP version has the ability to stop services (which you can do anyway)? Or do you just mean it will work as far as it goes?
