I was attempting to run the MSConfig utility on a windows 2000 prof machine, and received an error message that "cannot find the file msconfig or one of its components." has the name of the utility been changed? does it not install on a default installation of windows 2000? i would apprecitate any light anyone can shed on this. thank you

Msconfig is not included with Windows 2000. However, you can copy msconfig.exe from a Win 98 machine and it will run on 2000.

Hope this helps!

You'll have to copy MSCofig from a W98 machine.
Place it in the /WINNT directory. Some of the feature won't work the same, but many will.
Also look for TweakUI from microsoft.
