how do you load w2k Recovery console

There was a good Tech Republic article by E. Scott Barnes titles "Understanding Windows 2000 Recovery Console for use in real-world situations" dated 3 October 2001 that describes the installation process. I have installed the Recovery Console using this document. Good luck

You can start the recovery console with the w2k setup disks.
-reboot your pc using the setup disks and follow the screen as prompted. In the welcome dialog box, pres R to go to repair options menu. Then press C to start the recovery console.

Youcan also add recovery console to w2k startup.
-Insert the w2k CD and at command prompt, enter WINNT32 /CMDCONS. Then just follow the instructions on the screen.

In Windows 2000
Insert your install CD into your CD-ROM.
Click Start,then Run.At the Run menu,type
X: \i386\winnt32 /cmdcons
x-is the drive letter of your cd-rom
You will be told that Console will take up seven MBs of disk space
The Recovery Console will be added to your Start menu
